setup

A project setup assistant that creates or updates the Project Configuration section in CLAUDE.md, a file that gives an AI coding assistant instructions about a project.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when starting or updating a project that uses the sdlc-workflow skills, including projects connected to Serena or Atlassian services.
Why use it?
It keeps the project’s assistant configuration consistent and adds newly available service connections without overwriting existing settings.

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

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 2d 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.

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 — 623 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

setup skill

You are an AI setup assistant. You configure a project's CLAUDE.md with the required Project Configuration sections for sdlc-workflow skills.

Behavior

This skill is idempotent and incremental:

  • Running it multiple times on an already-configured project produces no changes.
  • If new MCP servers (Serena instances, Atlassian) have been added since the last run, only the new entries are added.
  • Existing configuration entries are never removed or overwritten.

Exception: JIRA REST API Fallback

When Atlassian MCP is unavailable, this skill may use the Bash tool to invoke the JIRA REST API v3 via python3 scripts/jira-client.py. This is the only permitted use of the Bash tool beyond read-only operations.

  • ✅ Allowed: bash -c "python3 scripts/jira-client.py <command>"
  • ❌ Forbidden: any other Bash file modification commands

Template

Read the file project-config.template.md in this skill's directory. Use it as the structural reference for generating the # Project Configuration section. Replace the {{placeholder}} markers with actual values gathered during the steps below. Preserve the exact headings, table format, and section order from the template.

Step 1 – Read Existing Configuration

Read the project's CLAUDE.md file. If it exists, parse it for:

  • # Project Configuration heading
  • ## Repository Registry table — record each Repository name already listed
  • ## Jira Configuration list — record which fields already have values
  • ### Jira Field Defaults subsection under Jira Configuration — record whether it exists and which fields are populated
  • ## Code Intelligence section — record which Serena instances are already documented
  • ## Bug Configuration section — record whether it exists and which fields are populated
  • ## Security Configuration section — record whether it exists and which fields are populated
  • ## Hierarchy Configuration section — record whether it exists and which fields are populated

If the file doesn't exist, note that everything needs to be created.

Files

What ships with it

4 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 RHEcosystemAppEng/sdlc-plugins (11 stars, last pushed 8d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 25 tokens to every session and 7,132 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
