env-setup

env-setup is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from berkcangumusisik/claude-code-practices. It costs 18 tokens per session (307 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An environment-configuration workflow that finds the settings an application reads from environment variables, documents them, and creates an example configuration file.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create or update `.env.example`, document required and optional settings, and add startup checks for missing values.
Why use it?
It reduces setup errors by showing which values are required, what they control, and what format they should use.

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

env-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 4d 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

Environment Setup

  1. Find all env var usages:
grep -rn "process\.env\.\|Deno\.env\.get\|env\." src/ --include="*.ts" --include="*.js" | grep -oE "process\.env\.[A-Z_]+" | sort -u
  1. Check existing .env* files:
ls .env* 2>/dev/null
cat .env.example 2>/dev/null
  1. For each env var found:

    • What is it used for?
    • Is it required or optional?
    • What's a safe example value?
    • Any format constraints? (URL, UUID, comma-separated, etc.)
  2. Generate/update .env.example:

# Database
DATABASE_URL=postgresql://user:password@localhost:5432/mydb

# Auth
JWT_SECRET=your-secret-key-min-32-chars
JWT_EXPIRES_IN=7d

# External APIs (optional)
STRIPE_SECRET_KEY=sk_test_...
  1. Generate a startup validation script src/lib/env.ts using zod or envalid to fail fast if required vars are missing.

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.
