# Setup Council (Cobbler compatibility)

This is an Elves-managed Claude Code compatibility alias for `/setup-council`.

- It delegates to the same Cobbler setup contract as `/setup-cobbler` and

- `python3 scripts/cobbler_agents.py setup`. Council is a compatibility gathering name; Cobbler is the

- coordinator.

+ It delegates to the same Cobbler **model onboarding / setup** contract as `/setup-cobbler`,

+ `references/model-onboarding.md`, and

+ `python3 scripts/cobbler_agents.py onboard plan|show|apply|probe` (plus `setup`). Council is a

+ compatibility gathering name; Cobbler is the coordinator.

Rules:

1. Setup must not require OpenRouter or external keys.

- 2. Do not print credentials or run paid model turns by default.

+ 2. Do not print credentials or run paid model turns by default (live smoke is opt-in).

3. Write only ignored local `.elves/models.toml` preferences; Never stage secrets or that file.

4. Keep native-first defaults and host-native fallbacks.

- 5. Use the main `elves` skill for full setup wording and operator CLI flags.

+ 5. Interview → apply → probe; re-run to update choices later.

+ 6. Use the main `elves` skill for full setup wording and operator CLI flags.
