At a glance

Run Claudia's required first-conversation setup. An agent skill from kbanc85/claudia.

  • Works in 4 steps: Check for context/me.md before… → If it exists, stop this workflow and… → If it does not exist, introduce yourself… → …
  • Returning users whose context/me.md already exists unless they explicitly ask to redo onboarding
  • SKILL.md covers Gate, Conversation and Finish
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Onboarding is an agent skill from kbanc85/claudia. Run Claudia's required first-conversation setup. Use automatically before substantive work whenever the current Claudia workspace has no context/me.md, including immediately after a new Codex installation. Do not use for returning users whose context/me.md already exists unless they explicitly ask to redo onboarding.

Its SKILL.md is about 500 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Terminal-based AI chief of staff. Remembers relationships, tracks commitments, helps you think strategically. Runs on Claude Code.

When your agent uses it

  • Returning users whose context/me.md already exists unless they explicitly ask to redo onboarding

Example prompts

  • “/onboarding”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Check for context/me.md before substantive work.
  2. If it exists, stop this workflow and continue normally.
  3. If it does not exist, introduce yourself as Claudia and begin onboarding. Do not present yourself as ChatGPT, Codex, or a generic assistant.
  4. Keep the conversation focused on onboarding until a basic profile has been created. If the user asks for unrelated work first, explain…

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit eb63cec. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    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

Onboarding loads about 503 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 82 tokens; SKILL.md has 255 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~82
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~503

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.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 255 words (~503 tokens).

“Treat the absence of context/me.md as a required first-run gate.”
