description	Run automated TeaRAGs install wizard from scratch — detects environment, installs deps (Node.js, tea-rags, Ollama/ONNX, Qdrant), tunes performance, configures MCP server. Progress saves to ~/.tea-rags/setup-progress.json for resumable install. Triggers on "install tea-rags", "set up TeaRAGs MCP", "configure tea-rags from scratch", "поставить tea-rags в проект". NOT for tuning an existing install — use tune for that.

TeaRAGs Setup Wizard

Automated install + config of TeaRAGs MCP server.

How to use this skill

1. Read step file for current step from steps/
2. Read reference.md for lookup tables (recommendations, version managers, env vars, defaults)
3. Execute step
4. Next step

Script Location

All scripts in ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/setup/.

First: determine OS to select script set.

Run uname -s (or via Bash tool)

• Output contains "Darwin" or "Linux" → use unix/ scripts (.sh)
• Output contains "MINGW", "MSYS", "CYGWIN" → use unix/ scripts (Git Bash)
• If PowerShell detected (Windows native) → use windows/ scripts (.ps1)

Store chosen prefix (e.g. SCRIPTS="${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/setup/unix"), use for all subsequent script calls.

Steps

Step	File	What it does
0	steps/step-0-progress.md	Check/init progress file
1	steps/step-1-detect.md	Detect environment, save to progress
2	steps/step-2-node.md	Install Node.js 24+
3	steps/step-3-tea-rags.md	Install tea-rags package
4	steps/step-4-embedding.md	Choose & install embedding provider
5	steps/step-5-qdrant.md	Choose & setup Qdrant
6	steps/step-6-tune.md	Tune performance parameters
7	steps/step-7-git.md	Configure git analytics
8	steps/step-8-configure.md	Configure MCP server
9	steps/step-9-register.md	Register project alias (before index)
10	steps/step-10-verify.md	Verify setup

Reference: reference.md — recommendation tables, version manager options, env vars, tune defaults.

Error Recovery

If a script fails (exit code 1):

1. Show stderr error to user
2. Progress file retains last successful state
3. Suggest re-running /tea-rags-setup:install — resumes from failed step

Common issues to check:

• Network/proxy errors (ECONNREFUSED, timeout, SSL): ask if behind corporate proxy. If yes: "Set proxy before re-running: export HTTP_PROXY=http://proxy:port HTTPS_PROXY=http://proxy:port"
• Permission errors (EACCES): suggest sudo or fix ownership
• "command not found" after install: suggest restart terminal or source shell profile (source ~/.bashrc / source ~/.zshrc)
• jq/curl missing: scripts report explicitly — follow install instructions in error message

Do NOT

• Run scripts without checking progress first
• Skip AskUserQuestion for user choices (embedding, qdrant)
• Proceed past a checkpoint without verification
• Modify MCP config for other servers
• Run indexing — that is /tea-rags:index after restart. (Step 9 registers alias only — records path mapping, does NOT index.)
