Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install shfmt-shell-script-formatting

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 formats your shell scripts with shfmt, respecting the rules of their dialect (POSIX, Bash or mksh), for example no arrays in POSIX. You get scripts with a uniform style, ready for the editor or CI.
