Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install technology-trade-off-matrix

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 follows a step-by-step method: technical overview, integration, architecture patterns, implementation and synthesis. It then builds a scored matrix on weighted dimensions, with scoring guidance and a validation checklist.
