Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install opentelemetry-grafana-instrumentation

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 sets up authentication to the Grafana Cloud OTLP gateway, enables automatic instrumentation for Java, Python, Node.js, Go or .NET, then checks traces in Tempo. You get an instrumented application and ready environment variables.
