quickstart

An interactive onboarding guide for the Orq Claude Code plugin. It explains how to set up credentials, connect to orq.ai, and use the plugin’s commands and workflows.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when you are new to Orq, have an API key but have not connected the plugin, or want a tour of its available commands and skills.
Why use it?
It helps new users complete setup without putting an API key into chat and shows how the plugin fits into building, deploying, monitoring, evaluating, and improving AI pipelines.

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.

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

quickstart 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 2d 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.

Quickstart

Interactive onboarding guide for the orq.ai plugin. Walks the user through credential setup, connection verification, and a tour of all commands and skills.

Instructions

1. Welcome & Orientation

Greet the user and give a brief overview:

Welcome to the orq.ai plugin for Claude Code!

This plugin gives you a set of commands (quick actions) and skills (multi-step workflows) for building, evaluating, and improving LLM pipelines on the orq.ai platform.

The lifecycle: Build → Deploy → Monitor → Evaluate → Optimize

Then use AskUserQuestion to determine the user's setup state:

  • "Brand new to orq.ai" → Go to Section 2
  • "I have an API key but haven't set up the plugin" → Go to Section 3
  • "I'm all set up" → Go to Section 4

2. Account & API Key Setup

Direct the user to create an account and generate an API key:

  1. Go to my.orq.ai and create an account (or sign in)
  2. Navigate to Settings → API Keys
  3. Click Create API Key and copy the key

Then continue to Section 3.

3. Environment Variable Setup

Security rule: Never ask the user to paste their API key in chat.

Tell the user:

To set your API key securely:

  1. Exit this session: type /exit
  2. Add the key to your shell profile so it persists across sessions:
    • zsh (macOS default): echo 'export ORQ_API_KEY=your-key-here' >> ~/.zshrc && source ~/.zshrc
    • bash: echo 'export ORQ_API_KEY=your-key-here' >> ~/.bashrc && source ~/.bashrc
  3. Restart Claude Code: claude
  4. Come back here: /orq:quickstart

For brand-new users: Stop here after giving these instructions.

For returning users (who say they already have the key set): Verify with a non-leaking check:

if [ -z "$ORQ_API_KEY" ]; then echo "NOT_SET"; else echo "SET"; fi

If NOT_SET, repeat the setup instructions above. If SET, continue to Section 4.

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.

quickstart is a command published in the GitHub repository orq-ai/assistant-plugins (6 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 23 tokens to every session and 1,380 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
