/ouroboros:setup

Guided onboarding wizard that converts users into power users.

Standalone users (Codex, pip install): Use ouroboros setup --runtime codex in your terminal instead. This skill runs inside a Claude Code session. For other runtime backends, the CLI ouroboros setup command handles configuration. For full install and onboarding instructions, see Getting Started.

GitHub Copilot CLI users: Run ouroboros setup --runtime copilot (after pipx install 'ouroboros-ai[mcp]' or uv tool install 'ouroboros-ai[mcp]'). Setup will:

  1. Live-discover available models from the GitHub Copilot models API (uses gh auth token) and let you pick a default. A bundled fallback list is used when offline.
  2. Write orchestrator.runtime_backend = copilot and llm.backend = copilot plus your chosen default into ~/.ouroboros/config.yaml.
  3. Register the MCP server in ~/.copilot/mcp-config.json so the next copilot session can call ooo ... skills.

Hyphen Anthropic IDs that the Ouroboros defaults use (for example claude-opus-4-6) are auto-mapped at runtime to the dotted form Copilot CLI expects (claude-opus-4.6), so existing config files keep working when you switch backends.
