Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install socratic-concept-explainer

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 reasons with you step by step, asks a few reflective questions, uses one analogy and avoids lists of facts. You get an explanation built with you, at the length you request.
