Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install mcp-traffic-live-debugging

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 places mcpsnoop between your client, such as Claude Desktop, Cursor or Claude Code, and an MCP server, over stdio or HTTP and SSE. It then reads the JSON-RPC frames in the terminal interface, without creating a separate client.
