setup

setup is a command for coding agents from TeXmeijin/claude-code-mascot-statusline. It costs 13 tokens per session (1,730 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A setup command for configuring a coding assistant’s mascot status line and action hooks. It lets the user choose a pixel-art cat or a retro space invader and decide whether the mascot applies everywhere or only in the current project.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to select a mascot pack, set its project or global scope, and configure the status line and hooks.
Why use it?
It removes the need to create the mascot configuration files and hook settings by hand.

Command

Installs and runs on its own, but its text points at files inside its plugin — anything it tells you to read at a ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} path is only there once the plugin is installed. Installing the plugin gets both.

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

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 5d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 201 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Step 0: Choose mascot pack

Ask the user which mascot pack they want to use.

Use AskUserQuestion (adapt language to the user's language):

  • Question: Which mascot pack would you like to use?
  • Options:
    • "pixel-buddy" — A pixel-art cat that reacts to your coding session (default)
    • "space-invader" — A retro arcade-style space invader

If the user chooses pixel-buddy, skip to Step 1 (it's the default, no config needed).

If the user chooses space-invader, proceed to Step 0.5.

Step 0.5: Choose scope (space-invader only)

Ask the user where they want to apply the space-invader pack.

The config directory is $CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR if set, otherwise ~/.claude. Resolve it first:

echo "${CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR:-$HOME/.claude}"

Use AskUserQuestion (adapt language to the user's language):

  • Question: Where should the space-invader pack be applied?
  • Options:
    • "All projects (user global)" — Writes to <config-dir>/plugins/claude-code-mascot-statusline/config.json
    • "This project only" — Writes to .claude/mascot.json in the current project

Based on the user's choice, write the config file:

For user global:

mkdir -p "${CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR:-$HOME/.claude}/plugins/claude-code-mascot-statusline"

Then use the Write tool to write <resolved-config-dir>/plugins/claude-code-mascot-statusline/config.json:

{
  "pack": "space-invader"
}

For this project only:

mkdir -p .claude

Then use the Write tool to write .claude/mascot.json:

{
  "pack": "space-invader"
}

Confirm to the user which path was written.

Step 0.7: Customize summary items (optional)

Ask the user if they want to customize which items appear in the status line summary.

Use AskUserQuestion (adapt language to the user's language):

  • Question: Would you like to customize the status line summary items?
  • Options:
    • "Show all (default)" — Show all available items
    • "Customize" — Choose which items to display

If the user chooses Show all, skip to Step 1.

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.
