setup

setup is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from kardebadas/claude-plugin. It costs 64 tokens per session (1,241 once invoked), scanned B, original, Apache-2.0.

A setup skill that checks whether the dependencies required by other skills are installed and enabled, then gives actions for missing items.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for checking and preparing the dependencies needed by the project's other skills.
Why use it?
It helps explain and resolve setup failures after installing a plugin or moving to a new machine.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 B, and why

setup scanned grade B 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 today.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (check-deps.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.

.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.

Setup

Overview

Gets superb's dependencies in place, and says plainly what it could not do.

superb:craft needs nothing. superb:pipeline and superb:bug-fix both compose superpowers and do not run without it.

Step 1 — Run the check. Always, first.

Run ./check-deps.sh from this skill's directory. It reports one fact per line, and its exit code is the instruction:

Exit Meaning What you do
0 Everything required is satisfied Report it. Stop.
1 Something is MISSING or DISABLED Run the ACTION lines, then re-check.
2 The state could not be determined Do not install anything. Report what it said.
HARNESS   claude | codex | unknown
REQUIRED  <name>  OK | MISSING | DISABLED | ERROR | UNKNOWN   <detail>
OPTIONAL  <name>  OK | MISSING                                <detail>
MARKET    <name>  OK | MISSING
ACTION    <the command that fixes the line above it>
NOTE      <something you need to know that is not actionable>

If check was passed as the argument, report and stop regardless of the exit code. With no argument, continue to Step 2.

Exit 2 is not a soft failure. ERROR means the query failed, not that the dependency is absent — a failed claude plugin list says nothing about what is installed. Installing on an ERROR is how a present, working dependency gets reinstalled over the top of itself. UNKNOWN means the same for a different reason: nothing could look. In both cases report the NOTE lines and stop.

Step 2 — Act, where you can

Only on exit 1, and only on Claude Code. Run the ACTION lines in the order they were printed — a marketplace has to exist before a plugin installs from it.

DISABLED is not MISSING. An installed-but-disabled plugin looks present to anything matching on the name, and its skills never load. The action is claude plugin enable superpowers; reinstalling is not the fix.

Files

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.

setup is a skill published in the GitHub repository kardebadas/claude-plugin (2 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 64 tokens to every session and 1,241 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (reads agent configuration directories). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-05.
