Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install sketch-architecture-before-coding

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 grounds the problem, then sketches types, signatures and module boundaries with unimplemented bodies. It then fills in the code against that sketch, and redoes the whole design if the architecture turns out wrong.
