cuecards: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/vc-setup/SKILL.md

vc:setup is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from opencue/cuecards. It costs 60 tokens per session (4,101 once invoked), scanned C, original, MIT.

An interactive setup tool for preparing a coding project for work with an AI agent. It identifies the project’s technology, asks about its needs, studies the code, and creates or updates project context files with your approval.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when starting a project or bringing an existing repository into an agent workflow. It can create process folders, scan the codebase, and fill in shared project context.
Why use it?
It removes the need to organise agent instructions and project context by hand. It also helps preserve useful existing setup instead of replacing it blindly.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: mentions subagents; installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents); mentions AGENTS.md.

This is opencue/cuecards's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on cuecards itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything cuecards configures →

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

vc:setup scanned grade C 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 3d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 255 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

VibeCo Agent Harness Setup

Interactive setup for the agent development harness. Works on fresh projects and existing projects with pre-existing .Codex/ or process/ configs.

The skill adapts its flow based on what it finds:

  • New projects (no existing process/ or context): detect, ask the user about their project, scaffold, study, validate.
  • Existing projects (has process/, context files, or AGENTS.md): detect, study what exists first, present findings and ask what to keep vs change, scaffold with approval, re-study to fill gaps, validate.

In both cases, the skill asks questions and waits for approval at every major step. It never silently reorganizes files or overwrites good content.

AGENTS.md and AGENTS.md are managed protocol files (orchestrator, RIPER-5 methodology, routing). They contain zero project-specific content and should NOT be adapted. Project-specific information lives in process/context/all-context.md, which is populated during the STUDY phase.

Prerequisites

  • The target repo should have a package.json (or equivalent project manifest).
  • That's it. The skill handles the rest.

Workflow

Read references/vc-setup.md for detailed phase instructions, detection heuristics, interactive question templates, parallel subagent delegation strategy, and validation checks.

Phase 0: BOOTSTRAP (handled by install.sh)

The install.sh script handles fetching and installing harness files before vc-setup runs. For existing projects, it backs up old .Codex/, .codex/, .agents/ to .vibecode-backup/, then does a clean install of all kit files. User's .Codex/settings.json is restored after install. The process/ directory is never touched by install.sh -- layout migration happens in vc-setup's SCAFFOLD phase.

If harness files are already present (.Codex/agents/ and .Codex/skills/ exist with 12+ agents and 20+ skills), skip Phase 0 and proceed directly to Phase 1 DETECT.

If harness files are NOT present, tell the user to run the installer first:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/withkynam/vibecode-pro-max-kit/main/install.sh | bash

What ships with it

1 file 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.

vc:setup is a skill published in the GitHub repository opencue/cuecards (5 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 60 tokens to every session and 4,101 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 2 findings (downloads and executes remote code, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
