Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install problem-statement-framing

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

This skill guides the writing of a problem statement, with the current and desired states described by observable facts, the stakeholders and verifiable success criteria. It avoids jumping to a solution too early and feeds the analysis that follows. You get a framing ready for root-cause analysis or design.
