Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install windsurf-common-mistakes

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 reviews how Cascade and Windsurf are set up, then flags risky habits: vague prompts, opening a monorepo root, unreviewed changes and exposed secrets. You get a list of fixes to apply.
