Coordinate Setup
SkillAI & modelsDiscover coding CLIs on the current computer and configure a Coordinate Agents implementation agent. Use for setup, executable checks, registered agents, user-level configuration, and project-over-user precedence.
Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.
No other account needed.
Connect ahel once, and every AI you use reads what you have installed.
Then ask your AI: use the Coordinate Setup skill
What this skill tells your AI
The instructions your AI receives, as published by hogancv/coordinate-agents in skills/coordinate-setup/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.
Use this skill for first-run onboarding. Use the Coordinate Agents MCP tools
for normal setup operations; do not generate a shell command for the user.
The Plugin bundles the Runtime, but coordinate-agents is not guaranteed to be
on PATH.
Normal MCP operations:
coordinate_agents_setup_discover
coordinate_agents_setup_configure
Only if MCP is unavailable, or if the user explicitly requests debugging, let
<skill-dir> be the absolute directory containing this loaded SKILL.md and
use the bundled fallback. The following shell syntax is not the normal Plugin
path:
node "<skill-dir>/../coordinate-agents/scripts/runtime-entry.mjs" ...
For the normal Plugin path, call coordinate_agents_setup_discover with
{ "root": "<repository>" } before changing configuration. The equivalent
fallback/debug invocation is:
node "<skill-dir>/../coordinate-agents/scripts/runtime-entry.mjs" setup --root "<repository>" --json
It checks codex, claude, agy, agy-proxy, and gemini by resolving the
actual executable. It reports unavailable commands and distinguishes
detected-but-not-configured agents. Detection never writes configuration.
The response also includes the additive adapters registry snapshot with each
registered identity, Contract version, capabilities, and configured Agent
facts. A trusted external adapter is represented without launching it; when an
external Agent is already configured, discovery uses only that adapter's
Contract-defined detect() operation for availability facts.
When the user chooses an agent, inspect its native help and perform one
high-level setup transaction through coordinate_agents_setup_configure. It
writes the machine-specific executable to
~/.coordinate-agents/config.json, registers/updates the project Agent,
assigns the workflow role, checks executable availability, and returns READY
facts. Do not manually compose config set, agent add, workflow editing,
and doctor calls:
An explicitly registered external adapter can be selected with its exact
identity through the same operation. The returned adapters snapshot is
additive and keeps Agent identity, Adapter identity, and executable identity
separate. An unavailable or incompatible adapter fails before either the user
configuration or project workflow transaction is committed, and the Runtime
rolls back any partial setup changes.
Fallback/debug syntax only:
node "<skill-dir>/../coordinate-agents/scripts/runtime-entry.mjs" setup configure \
--agent antigravity --command agy-proxy --adapter antigravity-cli \
--role implementer --root "<repository>" --json
For a generic CLI, pass an explicit argument template containing {prompt}
after checking that CLI's own --help; otherwise Runtime returns
UNSUPPORTED_CAPABILITY rather than claiming that executable detection means
adapter compatibility:
node "<skill-dir>/../coordinate-agents/scripts/runtime-entry.mjs" setup configure \
--agent claude --command claude --adapter generic-cli \
--args '["--print","{prompt}"]' --role implementer \
--root "<repository>" --json
User configuration is stored outside the plugin at
~/.coordinate-agents/config.json (Windows: C:\Users\<username>\.coordinate-agents\config.json).
An explicit project command in .agent-bus/config.json takes precedence over
the user file. Setup configure does not write the selected machine path to
project config unless a project override already exists; it refuses to replace
an existing explicit project command. Agent identity, Adapter, and executable
remain separate, so antigravity may use agy-proxy without falling back to
agy.
The selected command is also the persistent Session executable. The Runtime uses structured argument arrays, bounded PTY I/O, and only the configured project root; it does not control a Codex App terminal panel or another desktop window.
