What it does

Env Setup Wizard is an agent skill from OneWave-AI/claude-skills. Set up environment variables, .env files, and configuration management. Use when configuring environment variables, creating .env files, or managing app configuration.

Its SKILL.md is about 1k 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 DevOps & Cloud, covering Secrets management. The repository describes itself as: 200+ production-ready Claude Code skills for sales, marketing, design, engineering, and AI agent architecture. Built and maintained by OneWave AI. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Configuring environment variables
  • Creating .env files
  • Managing app configuration

Example prompts

  • “/env-setup-wizard”

Requirements

  • A credential in JWT_SECRET
  • A credential in NEXTAUTH_SECRET

Workflow steps

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

  1. Identify required variables for the project
  2. Create .env structure with proper organization
  3. Set up type-safe access to env vars
  4. Add validation on startup
  5. Document all variables

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit fc5b785. 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 (its code samples are typescript, bash and gitignore).

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

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • stripe.com
    • resend.com

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

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • JWT_SECRET
    • NEXT_PUBLIC_STRIPE_KEY
    • NEXTAUTH_SECRET
    • STRIPE_SECRET_KEY
    • RESEND_API_KEY
    • STRIPE_PUBLISHABLE_KEY
    • STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRET
    • AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
    • AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY

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

Context cost

Env Setup Wizard loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 46 tokens; SKILL.md has 98 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~46
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1k

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.

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.

Type-Safe Environment (Zod)

typescript
// src/lib/env.ts
import { z } from 'zod';

const envSchema = z.object({
  // App
  NODE_ENV: z.enum(['development', 'production', 'test']).default('development'),
  APP_URL: z.string().url(),
  PORT: z.coerce.number().default(3000),

  // Database
  DATABASE_URL: z.string().min(1),

  // Auth
  JWT_SECRET: z.string().min(32),
  NEXTAUTH_SECRET: z.string().min(32),
  NEXTAUTH_URL: z.string().url(),

  // APIs (optional in dev)
  STRIPE_SECRET_KEY: z.string().optional(),
  RESEND_API_KEY: z.string().optional(),
});

// Validate on import
const parsed = envSchema.safeParse(process.env);

if (!parsed.success) {
  console.error('Invalid environment variables:');
  console.error(parsed.error.flatten().fieldErrors);
  process.exit(1);
}

export const env = parsed.data;

// Type export for use elsewhere
export type Env = z.infer<typeof envSchema>;

Next.js Specific

typescript
// src/lib/env.ts for Next.js
import { z } from 'zod';

// Server-side variables
const serverSchema = z.object({
  DATABASE_URL: z.string(),
  JWT_SECRET: z.string(),
});

// Client-side variables (must start with NEXT_PUBLIC_)
const clientSchema = z.object({
  NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_URL: z.string().url(),
  NEXT_PUBLIC_STRIPE_KEY: z.string(),
});

export const serverEnv = serverSchema.parse(process.env);
export const clientEnv = clientSchema.parse({
  NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_URL: process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_URL,
  NEXT_PUBLIC_STRIPE_KEY: process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_STRIPE_KEY,
});
typescript
// src/env.mjs
import { createEnv } from "@t3-oss/env-nextjs";
import { z } from "zod";

export const env = createEnv({
  server: {
    DATABASE_URL: z.string().url(),
    NODE_ENV: z.enum(["development", "test", "production"]),
  },
  client: {
    NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_URL: z.string().url(),
  },
  runtimeEnv: {
    DATABASE_URL: process.env.DATABASE_URL,
    NODE_ENV: process.env.NODE_ENV,
    NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_URL: process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_URL,
  },
});

Security Best Practices

  1. Never commit secrets to git
  2. Use different values per environment
  3. Rotate secrets regularly
  4. Use secret managers in production (Vault, AWS Secrets Manager)
  5. Validate on startup to fail fast
  6. Prefix client vars (NEXT_PUBLIC_, VITE_, REACT_APP_)
