Getting it into your agent

There is no command for this one: it runs only inside a plugin, and the catalogue could not identify which plugin ships it. The source is linked below.

Made for: Claude Code, Codex.

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

course-setup scanned grade C with 1 finding 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 10d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/bootstrap.sh, scripts/verify.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.

Recursive force deletehighDestructive command

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

- **Reset from scratch**: delete the venvs (`rm -rf professional/servers/*/.venv`) and re-run `bootstrap.sh`.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 83 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

course-setup

Drives first-time installation (and ongoing verification) for the Zo-professional AI Investing course. Wraps two scripts shipped with this skill:

  • scripts/bootstrap.sh — installs everything, idempotent
  • scripts/verify.sh — green/red checklist; safe to run any time

When to invoke this skill

  • Student is opening the course for the first time on a fresh Zo workspace.
  • Student reports the SPY/TLT or PageIndex RAG MCP servers are missing, broken, or returning stale data.
  • Student asks "is my course setup OK?" or wants to confirm Ollama + gemma4:e2b are wired up.
  • The course release notes mention a new server version and the student wants to refresh.

What gets installed

Component Where Why
uv (package manager) ~/.local/bin/uv Used by both course servers; standard on Zo.
spy-tlt-course Python deps professional/servers/spy-tlt-course/.venv Week 1 server; entry point uv run spy-tlt-server.
page-index-rag-course Python deps professional/servers/page-index-rag-course/.venv Week 2 server; entry point uv run rag-server.
Ollama system Local LLM runtime for the RAG server's section summaries.
gemma4:e2b model Ollama model store The course-recommended summarization model — best quality/cost trade-off on a Zo box per our testing.
Patched config.json professional/servers/page-index-rag-course/config.json Sets ollama_model and summary_model to gemma4:e2b.
spy-tlt-course consumer skill /home/workspace/Skills/spy-tlt-course/ Agent-facing guidance for the SPY/TLT MCP tools.
pageindex-rag-course consumer skill /home/workspace/Skills/pageindex-rag-course/ Agent-facing guidance for the PageIndex RAG MCP tools. BLK + HOOD ship pre-indexed so Week 2 works immediately; full SEC fetch is available from day one for any other ticker.

Workflow

When the student invokes this skill:

  1. Locate the repo. Default is $ZO_COURSE_REPO if set, otherwise /home/workspace/AI-Investing-Course/repo if it exists, otherwise /home/workspace/ai-investment-courses (the canonical clone path the one-liner installer uses).
  2. Run bootstrap:

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.
