Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install pester-should-assertion-migration

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 finds Should -Be and Should -Not -Be calls in your .Tests.ps1 files, applies the mapping, checks behavioral gotchas and reruns the tests. The skill tracks Pester 6.0.0-rc2, still a release candidate, so the guidance may change.
