setup SKILL.md skillA
setup from choiyounggi/groundwork is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add choiyounggi/groundwork/setup@git:20260929.6ecf6e7Pins git:20260929.6ecf6e7 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

First-time memory-loop setup — offer identity names, create HABITS.md and OUTPUT.md from the templates, wire their imports into ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md, write an initial config, and verify the hooks respond.
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
# memory-loop: setup
Walk the user through first-time setup, in this order. Every step is optional
— respect a "skip".
## 1. Identity
Run the `identity` skill flow: offer the one-time name setup (set or decline).
See that skill for the schema and the confirmation rule.
## 2. HABITS.md
The habit-distillation frame is two files — rules that load every session, and
the case records they point to, which do not:
```
~/.claude/groundwork/HABITS.md (imported into every session — budgeted)
~/.claude/groundwork/HABITS-CASES.md (on demand, via [Cnn] pointers)
~/.claude/groundwork/HABITS-ARCHIVE.md (retired rules; created when first needed)
```
The habit file carries a budget — 8000 bytes / 24 rules by default — that
`habits-budget-guard.sh` enforces at the write. Mention it when you show the
file: the cap is what keeps an always-loaded file affordable, and the `habit`
skill explains how to make room.
- If they do not exist, copy the templates:
```bash
mkdir -p ~/.claude/groundwork
cp "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/templates/HABITS.md" ~/.claude/groundwork/HABITS.md
cp "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/templates/HABITS-CASES.md" ~/.claude/groundwork/HABITS-CASES.md
```

How to install
mdr add choiyounggi/groundwork/setup@sha256:747645bb1e6c5ff4The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260929.6ecf6e7, 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.
