setup

setup is a command for Claude Code from keepwhatworks/trinity. It costs 24 tokens per session (212 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that checks and repairs a Trinity-Local installation, including its command-line engine, health status, and MCP registration. MCP is a standard way for an agent to connect to external tools.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after installing Trinity-Local or when it is not working, to check PATH settings, health, the local embedder download, and registration with supported coding-agent applications.
Why use it?
It replaces a scattered setup check with a guided checklist and fixes the parts it can, while identifying the few steps that still need the user.

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

setup 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 17d ago.

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

If trinity-local is on PATH, run trinity-local install --check and relay its report: for each CLI whether it is installed, signed in and registered, how many of its transcripts Trinity reads, and which model its council member runs. It changes nothing. Each gap comes with the command that fixes it; offer to run those.

If trinity-local is not on PATH, this plugin is running Trinity's MCP server on its own, so the tools still work here. Say so, and that trinity-local install (from the one-line installer on keepwhatworks.com) adds the CLI and registers Trinity in Codex and agy too.

Do not run a council or verify here: this command only checks the setup. End with the single most important next step, not a wall of checks.

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.
