FAQPage Schema
How do I set up global settings for Claude CLI on a new machine?▼

Global settings setup for Claude CLI is automated through an interactive wizard script that configures ~/.claude/settings.json and validates the installation. The wizard guides first-time configuration across new environments to reduce friction and misconfigurations.

What does MCP server integration do during installation?▼

MCP server integration during installation provides scripted steps and configuration updates to connect external servers. The setup wizard handles this optional integration as part of the one-time machine configuration workflow.

How do I validate my Claude installation after running the setup wizard?▼

Validate your Claude installation by checking the output of the claude --version command and verifying the existence of ~/.claude/settings.json. The setup wizard performs these validation steps automatically to confirm correct configuration.

Can I run the installation wizard from any directory?▼

The installation wizard should be run from the repository root directory. Execute the interactive setup script at ./scripts/claude-wizard.sh to ensure all relative paths for global settings and configuration resolve correctly.

Why is my first-time Claude configuration failing?▼

First-time configuration fails when the interactive wizard cannot write to ~/.claude/settings.json or the claude --version validation check does not pass. Ensure you run the setup script from the repository root with correct permissions.

Do I need any dependencies to use the setup wizard?▼

No dependencies are required to use the setup wizard. The script automates the one-time machine setup and validates the installation without needing external packages or prior environment configuration.
