What problem does it solve? Setting up a new machine or account with a working AI agent environment requires installing many interdependent pieces (dotfiles, global instructions, safety hooks, session logs, statusline, herdr config) in the right order, and doing it manually leads to missed prerequisites, conflicting settings.json writes, and silent skips. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Ordered orchestration: Delegates each setup item to its owning sub-skill (setup-dotfiles, setup-global-config, setup-hooks, session-log, statusline, setup-herdr) while owning only sequencing, prerequisites, and conflict management. - Single-pass settings.json writes: Collects changes from hooks, session-log, and statusline into one read-modify-write so sequential edits do not overwrite each other. - Profile detection and audit mode: Detects OS and tool availability (python3, jq, herdr, codex), distinguishes prerequisite-missing from already-installed skips, and supports a read-only inspection mode that reports what is missing without changing anything. - Use Case: You get a new laptop and say "set up this machine" — the skill installs sub-skills if missing, runs each component in dependency order, and ends with a per-item installed/skipped/failed report plus the manual steps you still need to do. ## Quick Start Set up this new machine with the full agent environment and give me a report of what was installed or skipped.
