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.

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 | $0.00000 | $0.05757 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00000 | $0.02303 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00000 | $0.01151 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00576 |
Grade A, and why
project-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 1mo 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 — 393 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Project Setup — Client Folder Scaffolding
This skill handles client engagements. For internal products owned by the practice, use
$TEMPLATE_ROOT/templates/internal-product/.claude/skills/project-setup/SKILL.md. For tools (own use, team use, open source), use$TEMPLATE_ROOT/templates/tool/.claude/skills/project-setup/SKILL.md. The three skill files share the same overall structure but differ in vocabulary, prerequisite questions, and which charter file to populate.
This skill handles three situations:
- Greenfield: The user wants a new client project folder. You copy the template and fill placeholders.
- Retrofit: An existing project folder needs the template structure added. You merge intelligently — add what's missing, leave existing content alone.
- Reconcile: An existing folder's memory has drifted from reality (long technical session, thread loss, in-flight state never made it to disk). You rebuild
state.mdand re-sync the other memory files from git history, the activity log, and on-disk evidence.
Before doing anything, read $TEMPLATE_ROOT/config.local.md first — if it exists, use those values. Otherwise fall back to $TEMPLATE_ROOT/config.md. The .local.md variant is gitignored and holds the user's real paths and identity; config.md is the generic public version. Every path below is expressed relative to those two variables. Do not hardcode anyone's home directory. If the file that was actually read (either .local.md or .md) still contains /REPLACE/WITH/... placeholders, stop and tell the user to fill it first — the repo won't work until they do.
The default template lives at $TEMPLATE_ROOT/templates/client-project/. Additional templates may live as sibling directories under $TEMPLATE_ROOT/templates/. Instantiated projects live at $CLIENTS_ROOT/{client-slug}/.
When to Use
Greenfield triggers:
- "Set up a new project for [client]"
- "Scaffold a project folder for [client]"
- "Start a new client workspace"
- "Create the folder structure for [new engagement]"
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.

project-setup is a skill published in the GitHub repository 16wells/claude-project-setup (2 stars, last pushed 15d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 5,757 tokens. 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.
