Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install shfmt-formatting-config

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 a .shfmt.toml file, links the settings to EditorConfig and picks the dialect (POSIX, bash, mksh, bats), indentation and operator placement. You get identical formatting for the whole team.
