setup

A setup guide for connecting Fiber AI tools and installing or checking their SDKs. API keys are secret values that authorize requests to a service.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for configuring the FIBER_API_KEY environment variable, verifying the Fiber AI connection, and checking SDK setup.
Why use it?
It helps identify missing credentials, authentication problems, and unavailable MCP connections before you try to use Fiber AI.

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

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 2d 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.

Fiber AI Setup

Configure Fiber AI for the current environment.

When to Use

  • User says "setup fiber", "install fiber", "configure fiber"
  • MCP tools are not responding or returning authentication errors
  • User is missing an API key or needs to verify their configuration
  • First time using Fiber AI in this environment

Setup Steps

1. Check API Key

Check if the FIBER_API_KEY environment variable is set in the current shell.

  • If set: verify it works by calling the credits endpoint via Core MCP: call_operation("getOrgCredits", {"query": {"apiKey": "..."}}) If the call succeeds, show "Fiber AI is connected" with the credit balance.
  • If not set: instruct the user to:
    1. Get their API key from https://fiber.ai/app/api
    2. Set it as an environment variable:
      export FIBER_API_KEY=sk_live_...
      
    3. For persistence, add the export to their shell profile (~/.zshrc or ~/.bashrc)

2. Verify MCP Connection

After the API key is configured:

  • Try calling a Core MCP tool like list_all_endpoints to verify connectivity
  • If successful: confirm "Fiber AI MCP is connected and working."
  • If unsuccessful: check that the editor supports HTTP (Streamable HTTP) MCP transport and that network access to mcp.fiber.ai is not blocked

3. SDK Installation (Optional)

Only if the user intends to write application code (not just use MCP tools):

  • TypeScript: npm install @fiberai/sdk
  • Python: pip install fiberai

4. Quick Verification

Suggest the user run a quick test to confirm everything works:

Try running /fiber:search "technology companies in San Francisco" to verify your setup.

Authentication Notes

  • For POST/PATCH/PUT API endpoints: apiKey is passed in the request body
  • For GET API endpoints: apiKey is passed in the query string
  • Check https://api.fiber.ai/docs/ for the exact authentication format per endpoint

Troubleshooting

  • MCP not connecting: verify the editor supports HTTP (Streamable HTTP) MCP transport
  • Authentication errors (401): API key is invalid or expired — regenerate at https://fiber.ai/app/api
  • Insufficient credits (402): top up at https://www.fiber.ai/app/subscription
  • Rate limit errors (429): wait a moment and retry
  • Network errors: ensure outbound HTTPS to mcp.fiber.ai is allowed by firewall or proxy

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 is a skill published in the GitHub repository fiber-ai/fiber-ai-plugin (2 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 31 tokens to every session and 850 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. 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.
