Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install macro-pad-karabiner-setup

With no option, the skill goes to ~/.agents/skills/; add --agent claude-code (or codex, cursor…) to target an agent.

First time: connect the CLI with

npx --yes palatekit@latest login

The agent follows an end-to-end procedure for a small three-key pad: device identification, mapping of the codes it emits, a Karabiner rule limited to that device and handling of Bluetooth mode. You get a ready-to-use setup and a list of mistakes to avoid.
