Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install rust-cli-argument-parsing

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 writes or fixes the arguments of a Rust CLI with Clap v4, choosing between the derive API and the builder API. It covers mutually exclusive argument groups, custom value parsers and environment variable fallbacks.
