Onboard to a Bifrost MCP gateway in Claude Code — run the one-command setup, verify the MCP connects, and confirm memory + skill discovery are live. Triggers on 'set up bifrost', 'onboard me to bifrost', 'install bifrost gateway', 'first-run setup', 'bifrost setup'.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Bifrost Onboarding

Walk through full Bifrost setup in Claude Code (steps 1–5), then optionally
Claude Desktop (step 6).

## Step 1 — Get your gateway URL and virtual key

Ask your gateway operator for two values:
- The gateway `/mcp` endpoint URL → `BIFROST_URL`
- Your personal virtual key (`vk_…`) → `BIFROST_VK`

## Step 2 — Run the installer

From the plugin root (or use the slash command — see below):

```bash
export BIFROST_URL=https://<your-gateway-host>/mcp
node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/install.js" --key vk_<your-key>
```

The installer:
- Registers the bifrost MCP server via `claude mcp add --scope user` (idempotent — re-running replaces the same entry; it never edits config files directly).
- Without `--key`, stores the `${BIFROST_VK}` runtime template. It does NOT modify your shell profile — you must add `export BIFROST_VK=…` to `~/.zshrc` (or `~/.bashrc`) yourself for the key to persist across sessions.

Or run the slash command from inside Claude Code (same installer):

```
/bifrost-setup
```

## Step 3 — Persist the env vars, then restart Claude Code

Add the export lines to your shell profile so they survive new shells:

```bash
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add nexenio/bifrost-plugin/bifrost-onboard@sha256:c59d70e52f303053

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261009.f9cad52, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
