Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install pixel-art-character-design

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 checks silhouette readability, sizes the character against the tiles and places eyes and mouth at low resolution. You get test criteria and fixes for a character that reads clearly on screen.
