Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install perf-hardware-counters-analysis

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 collects PMU events with perf stat -e, then computes IPC, cache miss rates and branch misprediction ratios. It can also link events to source lines with perf annotate.
