Setup

Walks you through first-run setup of the Syndly skill library on this machine. Run this once per machine before using any other Syndly skill.

What it does

1. Check the existing state. If ~/.syndly/ already exists, ask the user: "The folder already exists. Re-run onboarding (overwrites the brand voice profile) or skip?" Only proceed after confirmation.

2. Create the directory tree. Run mkdir -p ~/.syndly/platforms. Confirm each directory was created.

3. Detect the MCP API key. Look for it in env (SYNDLY_API_KEY or SYN_MCP_KEY). If absent, ask the user to paste it and offer to add a hint to ~/.syndly/README.md documenting where to put it. Never persist the key itself to disk under the repo or under ~/.syndly/.

4. Run the brand voice interview. Ask the user, in this order, one question at a time. Wait for the answer before asking the next.

   • "In one sentence, what does this brand sound like? (e.g. measured-expert, witty-peer, warm-mentor)"
   • "Who is the audience? (job titles, expertise level)"
   • "Three topics you want the brand to own."
   • "Two phrases to avoid (anti-patterns)."
   • "The one thing the brand never does."
