A command that sets up a Mac as a Tart virtual-machine host for continuous integration, or CI. CI automatically builds and checks code on a server or build machine.

Use it to configure, copy, or validate a Mac-based CI host, with options for the host class, source VM image, and agent installation.

It makes an optional host-setup script available through a project command and can validate the host with a one-time virtual-machine build.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5	$0.00023	$0.00412
Opus 5	$0.00012	$0.00206
Sonnet 5	$0.00005	$0.00082
Haiku 4.5	$0.00002	$0.00041

Security

Grade A, and why

ci-host scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured today.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

pulp ci-host is the optional, discoverable wrapper around tools/ci/setup-ci-host.sh for turning a Mac into a Tart-VM CI host. It is an advanced/contributor path — never required, and Shipyard stays encouraged-not-mandated. The real work lives in the script; the command just makes it discoverable and passes flags through.

Setup a host

pulp ci-host setup --class <m5|studio|macbook|...>          # minimum
pulp ci-host setup --class m5 --copy-from 'macstudio:/Volumes/Workshop/VMs/vms/pulp-build-runner:latest'
pulp ci-host setup --class m5 --validate                    # also run a one-shot VM build to prove it

Common flags (all forwarded to setup-ci-host.sh):

--class <name> — required host class for the runner label (m5, studio, macbook, …)
--copy-from <ssh:path | path> — rsync a golden in from another host/drive (sparse-safe)
--validate — after setup, run one ephemeral VM build on the host-only label
--no-agent — do everything except install/load the launchd agent

Run pulp ci-host setup --help for the full flag list.

Notes

Runs from inside a Pulp checkout (it resolves tools/ci/setup-ci-host.sh).
For the from-scratch host recipe and gotchas, see docs/guides/mac-ci-host-setup.md and the tart-ci skill.
The bare-metal runner lane is a different tool; this command is the Tart-VM (ephemeral per-job) host path.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
