setup-catalyst

setup-catalyst is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from coalesce-labs/catalyst. It costs 69 tokens per session (918 once invoked), scanned C, original, no licence file.

A setup checker and repair tool for Catalyst installations. It checks required tools, the database, configuration, telemetry settings, environment loading, cloud mirroring, and knowledge-base folders, then fixes supported setup problems.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare a new Catalyst installation, repair an existing one, initialize or migrate its database, and verify the surrounding configuration.
Why use it?
It removes much of the manual troubleshooting involved in new installations, upgrades, and broken development environments.

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 C, and why

setup-catalyst scanned grade C with 2 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (__tests__/skill-shape.test.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

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.

setup-catalyst is a skill published in the GitHub repository coalesce-labs/catalyst (20 stars, last pushed 2d ago), with no licence file. It adds 69 tokens to every session and 918 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 2 findings (downloads and executes remote code, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
