Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install technical-design-spec

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 asks in-depth questions, recommends an option for each decision and writes a build spec in docs/specs/. It covers architecture, cross-cutting concerns, features and enhancements.
