aicrew-install

A setup guide for installing aicrew, a toolset of coding-agent skills, hooks, and connections to external tools. It covers the first-time global installation on a machine.

In plain words
What is it for?
Running or guiding the first aicrew installation, including the Node.js check, the install command, and verification with aicrew status.
Why use it?
It brings shared agent instructions and integrations into the locations used by Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and related tools. It also provides a status check after installation.

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.

Made for: Claude Code, Codex.

Per session 28 Skills are progressive disclosure: only the name and description are preloaded; the body loads when the skill is used.
When invoked 474 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan B 1 finding. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
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 B, and why

aicrew-install scanned grade B with 1 finding 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 yesterday.

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.

Reads agent configuration directoriesmediumAgent snooping

.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.

What it actually says

aicrew-install (Codex)

Use when: first time setting up aicrew on a machine, or running from within Codex without a terminal.

Equivalent actions

Method Command
CLI npx aicrew install or aicrew install
Codex skill aicrew-install (this skill)
Claude Code slash /install

Default output

Caveman/lean style. See ~/Agents/agents/caveman.md.

What install does

  1. Copies package skills → ~/Agents/ (shared source of truth)
  2. Merges skills → ~/.claude/skills/ (adds missing, never overwrites)
  3. Symlinks ~/.claude/commands/*.md~/Agents/commands/*.md
  4. Merges codex-skills/~/.codex/skills/
  5. Registers session-memory.py (Stop) + security-guard.py (PreToolUse) in ~/.claude/settings.json
  6. Symlinks MCP configs (~/.claude/.mcp.json, ~/.cursor/mcp.json), patches Codex config.toml

Steps (when running in Codex)

  1. Confirm Node 18+ is available: node --version
  2. Run: npx aicrew install (or aicrew install if globally installed)
  3. Verify: aicrew status

Expected output

Available commands in Claude Code:

Available skills in Codex:

After install

Open Claude Code in any project and type /dev. In Codex, invoke aicrew-dev.

Files

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.

aicrew-install is a skill published in the GitHub repository AKSoftCode/aicrew (3 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 28 tokens to every session and 474 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (reads agent configuration directories). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
