ThisCode Setup Skill

Generated through the mandatory /prompt workflow:

/prompt --batch GPT-5.6 상세 ThisCode setup skill: create a step-by-step installer-facing skill that invokes thiscode init, explains tmux-only Discord connection, safe-vs-YOLO mode, and asks progress_report_cadence.

Goal

Guide thiscode setup / thiscode init through a reason-first setup path.

Required Flow

1. Run thiscode init for guided setup.
2. Confirm repo root and any bot working directory before generating aliases.
3. Use tmux for Discord bot runtime windows on macOS/WSL/Linux. Do not use cmux for this flow. On Windows native (PowerShell), do NOT introduce tmux/WSL — follow docs/10-windows-powershell-bots.md: one PowerShell window per bot, and generate a $PROFILE function (e.g. function mybot { $env:DISCORD_STATE_DIR=...; claude ... }) as the alias equivalent.
4. Present safe mode first. YOLO/danger-full-access requires explicit opt-in.
5. Ask progress_report_cadence: per_task, 1m, 3m, 5m, off, or custom. per_task means a meaningful subtask or milestone completion, not every raw model turn boundary.
6. Wire hooks: run the /thiscode:install-hooks skill (safe jq merge into ~/.claude/settings.json, existing hooks preserved). This registers the SessionStart helper (injects soul.md persona + working-dir memory index + the situational rules router rules/INDEX.md) and the active-meeting Stop reread (hooks/meeting-stop-reread.sh). Confirm SessionStart and Stop hooks are registered with the install-hooks verify step. Without this, recent rule / meeting-protocol behavior does not auto-apply.
7. Read docs/RECENT-CHANGES.md and apply anything not yet reflected — it is the newest-first digest of contract/behavior changes a fresh install must adopt (e.g. the Stop-hook output contract).
8. Generate the shell aliases / launcher — REQUIRED, never skip silently (2026-08-12 regression fix: real setups were observed ending without this step; a setup with no alias is incomplete unless the user explicitly declined, and the decline must be recorded in the completion contract below). Then tell the user to source the generated alias script/block; only add it to a shell rc file if they explicitly want it permanent. On Windows the target is the PowerShell profile: write the function into $PROFILE and apply with . $PROFILE (if blocked by ExecutionPolicy, Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope CurrentUser RemoteSigned once).
9. Finish with thiscode doctor or the nearest available verify command, and echo the completion contract below in the final report.

Completion Contract (yaml 규약 — 2026-08-12)

The final setup report MUST echo this block with real values. aliases may never be empty or omitted — a silent skip reads as an incomplete setup:

setup_completion:
  aliases: installed | declined(<reason>)   # step 8 — REQUIRED (bot 생성 흐름은 create-bot 의 $BOT_DIR/bot.yaml 을 기준으로 삼는다)
  wd_docs: created | declined(<reason>)     # WD CLAUDE.md — create-bot Step 6 결과(bot.yaml wd_docs 와 동일, REQUIRED)
  hooks_wired: true                         # step 6 — install-hooks verify passed
  doctor: pass                              # step 9

Guardrails

• Do not turn a copied skill into a completed setup claim.
• Missing decisions stop with the next command instead of guessed values.
• A setup report without the completion contract (or with aliases empty) is not a finished setup — go back and run the skipped step.

How to Use This Skill

Use this skill during initial setup phase to configure ThisCode environment. Handles dependency verification, environment detection, and configuration file generation for your specific OS and setup context.
