dev-local-setup

dev-local-setup is a skill for Claude Code from gabrielmoreira/agent-skills-mirror. It costs 110 tokens per session (1,313 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A setup guide that creates one script for starting and managing every service needed to develop a codebase locally. It uses tmux, a terminal tool for running several processes in separate windows, and includes commands for status, logs, restarting, and stopping.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect a repository and generate a scripts/dev-local.sh launcher for its development stack. It is useful for projects with multiple apps or services, including monorepos, where related packages live in one repository.
Why use it?
It removes the need to remember which servers, databases, caches, ports, and other services must be started by hand. This gives people and agents a repeatable local development environment.

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

dev-local-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 5d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (assets/dev-local.template.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.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 99 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Set up a dev-local launcher for this codebase

Goal: produce one script (scripts/dev-local.sh) that a person or agent runs to bring the whole local stack up — every long-lived dev server in its own tmux window, plus any infra (DB, cache, queues) the app needs — and a short skill doc so it's discoverable later.

Do NOT start any dev servers yourself. You are generating the launcher, not running it. Build it, syntax-check it, then hand it to the user to run.

This is the local, single-stack launcher. For concurrent agents that each need their own isolated stack (one laptop can't run N), see crabbox-setup — the cloud counterpart. It reuses this script's service/port discovery, so set this up first.

Step 1 — Investigate the repo (don't guess)

Discover the real facts before writing anything:

  1. Package manager & layout — look for pnpm-workspace.yaml / turbo.json / nx.json / lerna.json (monorepo) or a single package.json, Cargo.toml, go.mod, pyproject.toml, Makefile, Procfile, docker-compose.yml.
  2. Services to run — each app/package with a dev/start/serve script, or each Procfile line, or each docker-compose service. Note the exact command to start each (e.g. pnpm --filter <name> run dev, npm run dev, cargo run, uvicorn app:app --reload).
  3. Ports — grep configs and .env for the port each service binds (PORT, listen(, server.port, framework config like rsbuild.config, vite.config, next.config). Record which talks to which.
  4. Infra dependencies — does a backend need Postgres / Supabase / MySQL / Redis / Mongo / Kafka? Check .env(.local), ORM config, docker-compose, and connection-string defaults. Decide how to provide each locally (supabase start, a Docker container, an existing docker-compose).
  5. First-run setup — migrations, seed, codegen, install. Note the commands but keep them OUT of the default up path (offer a separate subcommand).
  6. Env files — confirm a committed .env.example/.env; never invent or print secrets. The script must not inject credentials.

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.
