Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install nestjs-typescript-backend

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 creates NestJS modules, controllers, services, DTOs, guards, interceptors and pipes, configures dependency injection and JWT or Passport authentication, then integrates TypeORM or Prisma and Swagger documentation. It also writes unit and E2E tests.
