Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install sharpen-fuzzy-idea-before-spec

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 asks one question at a time, suggests a recommended answer and files each answer under goals (§G) or constraints (§C). Unknowns are kept as open items, never guessed. You reach the spec with a clear idea and explicit assumptions.
