Project scope by default; add --scope user for a personal install. Needs GitHub CLI 2.90.0 or later (public preview).

Manual copy

What it does

Start is an agent skill from romarayt/raytsystem-public-os. Get raytsystem running in a repository — install it if needed, then launch the interface. Use for "start", "start raytsystem", "install raytsystem", "connect this project", "set up raytsystem here", "open the interface", "запусти", "старт", "подключить пространство", "установить raytsystem". Two modes — the current project, or another local directory you point at. Never overwrites user files; fully reversible.

Its SKILL.md is about 680 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: Local-first agent workspace for knowledge, tasks, documents and verifiable workflows · Локальная агентная система для знаний, задач и проверяемых процессов · t.me/romarayt. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Start raytsystem
  • Install raytsystem
  • Connect this project
  • Set up raytsystem here

Example prompts

  • “start raytsystem”
  • “install raytsystem”
  • “connect this project”
  • “/start”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Current project — install into the repository the user has open (target = repo root).
  2. Another local directory — a path the user names (their Obsidian vault, notes folder, another

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b5ac705. 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:

    • uv

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use uv, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Start loads about 676 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 105 tokens; SKILL.md has 274 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~105
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~676

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.

Get raytsystem running in a repository — install it if needed, then launch the interface. Use for "start", "start raytsystem", "install raytsystem", "connect this project", "set up raytsystem here", "open the interface", "запусти", "старт", "подключить пространство", "установить raytsystem". Two modes — the current project, or another local directory you point at. Never overwrites user files; fully reversible.

start — get raytsystem running here

The fastest way to go from a plain repository to a running raytsystem. It is safe: it previews first, only creates new files (never overwrites the user's), and is reversible with uninstall. Nothing is sent over the network. Talk to the user in their language and in plain terms.

Two modes

  1. Current project — install into the repository the user has open (target = repo root).
  2. Another local directory — a path the user names (their Obsidian vault, notes folder, another repo). Ask for the absolute path.

Step 0 — Is it already installed?

bash
uv run raytsystem doctor --root <TARGET_PATH> --json

If config_exists is true (raytsystem is already here), skip to Launch. Otherwise Install.

Install

  1. Preview (writes nothing). Read the JSON; explain what was detected, which files will be created, which are merged vs left untouched, the source roots, and the fingerprint.
    bash
    uv run raytsystem bootstrap --target <TARGET_PATH> --dry-run --json
  2. Confirm. Show the summary and stop. Wait for an explicit yes.
  3. Apply with the fingerprint from step 1:
    bash
    uv run raytsystem bootstrap --target <TARGET_PATH> --apply --confirm <FINGERPRINT> --json

Never run --apply without a fresh fingerprint. README.md is kept verbatim; AGENTS.md gets an appended RAYTSYSTEM:BEGIN/END block; the user's source data is indexed in place, never moved.

Launch

bash
uv run raytsystem start --root <TARGET_PATH>

This opens the loopback-only interface (http://127.0.0.1:8765). raytsystem start is the short alias for raytsystem ui. Then point the user at their first commands: raytsystem status, raytsystem task list, raytsystem query, and the graph skill to refresh the graph.

Uninstall (reverse it)

bash
uv run raytsystem uninstall --target <TARGET_PATH> --json

Removes only what raytsystem created and strips the appended block; user and source data are untouched.

Never do

  • Never overwrite, delete, or "clean up" the user's files.
  • Never push, publish, upload, or send anything externally.
  • Never promote a real corpus; ingest stays proposal-only until separately approved.
