setup-wayfinder

setup-wayfinder is a skill for Claude Code from glitchwerks/claude-wayfinder. It costs 122 tokens per session (2,509 once invoked), scanned D, original, MIT.

A setup procedure for creating the Python environment that the claude-wayfinder plugin needs to run. It also records that setup has finished so the plugin’s hooks can use it.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when installing dependencies, running the setup command, or repairing a wayfinder installation that is not working.
Why use it?
It removes the manual work of preparing dependencies and fixes problems caused by a missing or broken plugin environment. It checks which plugin data directory belongs to the current installation.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA} variable. Also seen: mentions Codex.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

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 D, and why

setup-wayfinder scanned grade D 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 11d 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.

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

- Offer the common-cause hint: on Debian/Ubuntu, `sudo apt install python3-venv` is often needed.

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 203 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Setup claude-wayfinder

Materialize the Python venv at ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA}/venv/ so plugin hooks can spawn a Python that has claude_wayfinder importable. Write the setup-state flag so hooks know setup completed.

The behavior described below is mirrored by tests/integration/setup_pipeline.py. If you change anything here, update that file too (CI's test_skill_pipeline_sync.py enforces this).

Step 1: Resolve ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA}

The plugin data directory path is keyed <plugin>-<marketplace> by the harness, and the same plugin resolves under different marketplace keys across surfacesclaude-wayfinder-glitchwerks on a CLI surface, claude-wayfinder-inline on a desktop/ccd surface. Two sources are available, in priority order:

  • Runtime env var $CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA (no braces) — the test seam, but the harness sets it to whichever plugin invoked the current surface, so another plugin's data dir can leak in (e.g. codex-inline). Honor it only when its basename is a same-plugin key: claude-wayfinder-<marketplace> with exactly one marketplace segment after the plugin name (-glitchwerks, -inline, …). This admits every marketplace variant while rejecting two leak classes — unrelated plugins (codex-inline) and prefix-colliding sibling plugins whose own name starts with claude-wayfinder- (e.g. claude-wayfinder-helper → key claude-wayfinder-helper-inline, which has a second - segment). Do not require an exact -glitchwerks match — that is the bug this guard replaces (it rejected the legitimate -inline desktop key and silently misinstalled into the CLI-keyed dir, leaving every desktop session stuck on the "requires setup" banner). Do not loosen it to a bare claude-wayfinder-* prefix either — that re-admits the sibling-plugin collision.
  • Harness-rendered literal ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA} (braces) — the harness substitutes this token in the skill body at load time with this session's correct data dir. Prefer it over a hardcoded -glitchwerks slug whenever the runtime env var is unusable (cross-plugin leak, or unset).
  • Computed slug (claude-wayfinder-glitchwerks) — last resort only, for raw execution outside the harness where neither source above is available.

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-wayfinder is a skill published in the GitHub repository glitchwerks/claude-wayfinder (2 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 122 tokens to every session and 2,509 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it D with 2 findings (asks for root, recursive force delete). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
