# Install ATK Install or update the M365 Agents Toolkit (ATK) CLI and/or VS Code extension. ## Telemetry Tagging Before running any `atk` CLI commands, set the session environment variable so all CLI invocations are tagged as skill-initiated: ```bash export ATK_CLI_SKILL=true ``` Run this once at the start of the session. All subsequent `atk` commands in the same terminal will inherit it. ## Trigg

About this skill
What does the install-atk skill do?

Install or update the M365 Agents Toolkit (ATK) CLI and VS Code extension. "install the toolkit", "setup atk", "get atk", "install atk cli", "install atk extension", "install atk vsix", "update the vs code extension", "install latest atk", "upgrade atk"

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add microsoft/skills --skill install-atk --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.

Where does this skill come from?

From microsoft/skills, a repository with 2,860 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.

Is a popular skill a good skill?

Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
