Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install r-package-dev-commands

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 runs the commands that fit each step: loading the package, full or targeted tests, redocumentation, pkgdown or R CMD check verification, and formatting. You get the result of each command, ready to interpret.
