kit-setup

kit-setup is a skill for Claude Code from chrisblattman/claudeblattman. It costs 34 tokens per session (291 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A one-time setup workflow for a starter kit. It detects installed Codex or Gemini command-line tools, asks whether to use each one, saves that choice, and can personalize Claude's writing style.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when setting up the kit, checking available AI engines, saving engine preferences, or optionally customizing how Claude writes.
Why use it?
It records optional tools safely without asking about subscriptions or configuring tools that are not installed.

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

kit-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 today.

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

Set up optional connections

Read the neighboring Ask Agents skill and its references/transport.md. Follow references/host.md here for executable discovery and app-specific configuration. Do not change council defaults, billing, global permissions, or model selection without the user's direction.

Ask which connection the user wants only if it is not clear. Check the helper executable and version. Detection or desktop sign-in alone does not prove authentication. Explain missing prerequisites plainly; use current official guidance if installation help is needed, and leave passwords/tokens to the provider's login flow.

Test each requested service through its documented runner using only “Reply with exactly: starter-kit-ok” in a new empty temporary folder. No project files. Respect existing send authorization and host approvals. A connection works only when execution succeeds and the expected reply is present. If login fails, help with the supported login and retry once; preserve any remaining failure honestly.

Record only connections that actually passed. Preserve unknown configuration fields and prior declined services. Report detected, tested, and unavailable services separately. Explain that working Ask Agents connections do not establish Chris's audited Light/Full runtime: the Council runtime status remains authoritative. Safe to rerun; never overwrite user preferences or install an unrelated global instruction file.

Files

What ships with it

2 files 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.
