Instructions for the /orch:init command, which checks whether a repository has been prepared for Orch and starts setup when needed. Orch is the repository workflow system referenced by these instructions.

Checking repository readiness, starting the interactive setup interview, loading setup guidance, and completing initialization when the repository is not yet configured.

It ensures initialization follows the required detection report, interview steps, and final bootstrap process.

init — Command for Claude Code by kninetimmy/orch

Install

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Clone the repo

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/kninetimmy/orch

Made for: Claude Code.

Or install orch, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 3 skills, 3 commands, 5 agents, 5 hooks.

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 5.1	$0.00019	$0.00185
Opus 5.5	$0.00008	$0.00074
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00004	$0.00037
Haiku 4.5	$0.00002	$0.00018

Security

Grade A, and why

init 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 2mo 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

/orch:init

Run orch init (bare, no flags) first and show its detection report to the user verbatim. Never pipe anything into this bare form — it never reads stdin.

If the report shows the repository is not yet initialized, load the orch-setup skill and follow its step loop using orch init --step for every step, and orch init --bootstrap as the terminal form once the interview reaches kind: "complete".

If the repository is already initialized, the bare report says so (pointing at orch configure instead); do not start the step loop.

No protocol is duplicated here — orch-setup owns every detail of the step loop, the question presentation, and the terminal-form handoff.

Changes

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.
