Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install slack-message-text-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 identifies the receiving field, chooses between mrkdwn, Markdown and rich_text, then formats mentions, links, dates and characters to escape without changing the content. Block Kit layout is out of scope.
