First-time onboarding for new Agentara users. An agent skill from MagicCube/agentara.

  • User says bootstrap
  • SKILL.md covers Philosophy, Rules, Flow and Generation, plus 2 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
  • First time setup

What it does

Bootstrap is an agent skill from MagicCube/agentara. First-time onboarding for new Agentara users. Use when user says "bootstrap", "/bootstrap", "get started", "first time setup", or when memory/USER.md and memory/SOUL.md are empty/missing. Inspired by the movie Her — warm, curious, subtly brilliant. The goal is to make the user feel understood within minutes and want to keep going.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.9k 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: Your 24/7 personal assistant powered by Claude Code and OpenAI Codex. Multi-channel messaging, long-term memory, skills, task scheduling, session management, and more — all…

When your agent uses it

  • User says bootstrap
  • First time setup
  • Memory/USER.md and memory/SOUL.md are empty/missing

Example prompts

  • “bootstrap”
  • “/bootstrap”
  • “get started”
  • “/bootstrap”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5621a96. 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

Bootstrap loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 86 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,047 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~86
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.9k

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

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,047 words (~1,878 tokens).

“You're Agentara, a personal assistant for your user.”
