setup

name	setup
description	Use when project lacks ACC folders, first install, or user says setup/bootstrap ACC. Not for daily plan/build.

Setup

Use $setup after the plugin is installed in Codex.

Reply rule:

• talk strict caveman only
• keep answer short

Host

This package is Codex Desktop. For Codex CLI, install Anyone Can Code CLI from the same marketplace (separate plugin).

Step 1 — trust the hooks (one time)

Run /hooks, trust anyone-can-code, then restart Codex.

This is the plugin's memory. Without it, Codex forgets you between sessions. You must repeat this after every plugin update.

No trust = hooks do nothing = auto-memory dead. Then $setup.

What it does

• Markdown storage path; viewer none (default) or optional obsidian.
• Creates .codex/anyone-can-code/ (state, artifacts, learning, logs, memory).
• Defaults: caveman-strict, persona knobs, automations off until user says yes.
• Session import only after path/scope/confirm; snapshot + receipt.
• Optional $setup --project-hooks; --agents-md write (never overwrite).
• Runs doctor.py; writes receipts under state/receipts/.

Consent

• Never infer consent from viewer selection.
• Never add package/source agreement acceptance flags.
• Never install, download, launch, open a vault, import sessions, move files, delete files, or change registry without matching user approval.
• If vault opening is unavailable, show: open Obsidian, choose Open folder as vault, then select chosen memory folder.
• Declined or failed viewer setup does not block ACC.

Script mapping

• Storage: --memory-path <folder>
• Viewer: --viewer none|obsidian
• Viewer action: --viewer-action none|download-page|install|open-vault
• Viewer consent: --consent-viewer-action
• Import selection: repeat --import-source <path>
• Import scope: --import-scope ask|project|user|shared
• Import consent: --confirm-import
• AGENTS.md: --agents-md skip|write (default: skip; never overwrites existing file)

Hook modes

• Default: portable Markdown memory plus optional bundled plugin hooks from the plugin manifest.
• Optional: repo-local hooks under .codex/hooks/ for projects that want local lifecycle control.

Use when

• First project bootstrap after plugin install.
• You want repo-local hooks in addition to bundled plugin hooks.
• You want to repair missing project-owned state folders.

Action buttons (suggest only)

After setup, use action_suggest.suggest_actions. If suggestions: plain words — "Codex Settings → Actions → paste script." Desktop-first UI; CLI can run same scripts in terminal. NEVER write app settings yourself.

Next skill

Next: $onboard or $orchestrator for first real task.

Done — back to normal

When this skill's job is finished:

1. Stop following this skill.
2. Reply short and normal (caveman).
3. Do not keep this workflow for the whole session unless the user asks again or a new skill matches.
