Install targets
Install this skill in your agent workflow
Copy the registry command or an agent-specific install prompt for Codex, Claude Code, and Cursor.
OpenAgentSkill CLI
Use the registry command when your workflow supports the OpenAgentSkill installer.
$ npx skills add redpen-cc/redpenAgent resolve plan
Let an agent verify fit before installing.
The Resolve API returns the selected skill, alternatives, safety policy, audit notes, install target, and copy-paste prompt an agent can follow without scraping this page.
