Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install returning-user-traffic-simulation

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 drives a single browser context across several page views, with cookies and localStorage kept, then reports which PostHog events fired. You see whether the same distinct_id is reused and whether every page sends a $pageview.
