Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install vendor-selection-and-scoring

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 defines the need, decides between build and buy, builds a shortlist, scores vendors against a rubric and prepares the negotiation. It also helps decide whether to keep or switch a tool before renewal. You get a scoring grid and negotiation points.
