Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install scope-creep-guard

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 ties every line of the diff to a sentence in the request, moves extras into a suggestions list and flags a PRD that outgrows its problem statement. It avoids side refactors and extra features.
