Installation Guide
One line, via the
skills CLI:bash
npx skills add JuliusBrussee/cavekitInstalls nine skills into ~/.claude/skills/: spec, build, check
(the loop), grill, research, review, deepen (reach-for), pluscaveman and backprop (the utilities). Claude activates each when its
trigger context matches — e.g. "write a spec for…" invokes spec, a fuzzy
idea invokes grill, a risky change before build invokes review. Claude
Code picks them up on next launch.
Or via the Claude Code marketplace (also adds the /ck:spec, /ck:build,/ck:check, /ck:grill, /ck:research, /ck:review, /ck:deepen slash
commands):
bash
/plugin marketplace add juliusbrussee/cavekit
/plugin install ck@cavekitOr clone directly:
bash
