  • Works in 7 steps: Plan: onboard plan --json — inventory… → Interview the user for each purpose… → Apply: onboard apply writes ignored… → …

  • Calls python3
  • Asks to set up Cobbler model routes

What it does

Setup Cobbler is an agent skill from aigorahub/elves. Configure Cobbler model routes and external-agent preferences for this checkout. Use when the user types /setup-cobbler, asks to set up Cobbler model routes, onboard models, or update which tools handle planning/implement/review in Claude Code.

Its SKILL.md is about 540 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Agent Workflows. The repository describes itself as: Autonomous multi-batch development skill for Claude Code and Codex. They work while you sleep. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user types /setup-cobbler
  • Asks to set up Cobbler model routes
  • Update which tools handle planning/implement/review in Claude Code

Example prompts

  • “/setup-cobbler”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

7 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Plan: onboard plan --json — inventory tools, detect env names present (never values),
  2. Interview the user for each purpose (planning, implement, review, scout, validate, synthesize,
  3. Apply: onboard apply writes ignored .elves/models.toml only. Never stage it. Never paste
  4. Probe: onboard probe runs structural checks (PATH, --help, env names). Optional
  5. Update later: same flow (show → re-interview → apply --force → probe).
  6. Recommend routes by capability, not prestige model names. Keep host-native fallbacks.
  7. Snapshot effective routes into the Survival Guide during Elves staging for reviewable provenance.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit fba17a3. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python3

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Setup Cobbler loads about 537 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 65 tokens; SKILL.md has 215 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~65
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~537

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Setup Cobbler / Model Onboarding

This is an Elves-managed Claude Code alias for /setup-cobbler.

Run the model onboarding contract from the main elves skill and references/model-onboarding.md. Operator CLI:

bash
python3 scripts/cobbler_agents.py onboard plan|show|apply|probe [--json]
python3 scripts/cobbler_agents.py setup …   # apply-only / inventory

Setup must not require OpenRouter or any external provider key. Native-only Elves remains fully usable without running setup.

Default behavior (both Claude Code and Codex)

  1. Plan: onboard plan --json — inventory tools, detect env names present (never values), emit purpose→route questions.
  2. Interview the user for each purpose (planning, implement, review, scout, validate, synthesize, optional math evolutionary search). Offer host-native first. Respect available CLIs/keys.
  3. Apply: onboard apply writes ignored .elves/models.toml only. Never stage it. Never paste API keys into TOML, chat, or the Survival Guide.
  4. Probe: onboard probe runs structural checks (PATH, --help, env names). Optional --smoke only if the user wants a paid live check — host runs a real tiny completion; fake smoke does not count.
  5. Update later: same flow (show → re-interview → apply --force → probe).
  6. Recommend routes by capability, not prestige model names. Keep host-native fallbacks.
  7. Snapshot effective routes into the Survival Guide during Elves staging for reviewable provenance.

Codex equivalent (not a top-level slash command): $elves setup-cobbler or natural language such as "Set up Cobbler external-agent preferences" / "onboard my models."

Compatibility: /setup-council is the same setup contract with a Council-era name.
