Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install salesforce-connect-apex-adapter

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 first asks about the shape of the API, then generates the DataSource.Connection and DataSource.Provider classes, the named credential file and the deployment steps. You get external data queryable in Salesforce, with no copy or ETL.
