Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install vscode-extension-development-guide

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 the full extension lifecycle, from scaffolding to publishing: commands, keybindings, settings, tree views, CSP-secured webviews, testing and packaging. The skill is written in English and targets VS Code 1.74+ APIs.
