Interactive Claude Code environment setup wizard. Detects existing configuration, guides through best-practice setup for Global CLAUDE.md, project scaffolding, MCP servers, hooks, custom agents, keybindings, and settings. Use when user runs /devtools:code-env-setup, mentions "setup claude code", "configure claude", "claude code setup", "environment setup", or "initialize claude code".

Claude Code Setup Wizard

Interactive environment setup following the Claude Code Guide.

Pre-flight

Run the detection script to understand current state:

python3 ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/detect_setup.py

Two-Phase Workflow

Phase 1: Detect

Run the detector on the project root:

python3 ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/detect_setup.py <project-root>

Fetch the guide via WebFetch:
```
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/joaquimscosta/arkhe-claude-plugins/main/docs/CLAUDE_CODE_GUIDE.md
```
If WebFetch fails (network error, 404), warn the user and proceed using LLM knowledge only.
Cross-reference detection JSON against guide recommendations to identify what is missing or incomplete.
Detect MCP servers separately via Bash:
```
claude mcp list
```

Phase 2: Configure

Present category selection using AskUserQuestion (multiSelect: true). Show detection status for each category (configured / partially configured / not configured):

#	Category	Guide Section	What It Configures
1	Global CLAUDE.md	Section 1	`~/.claude/CLAUDE.md` — security NEVER rules, account config
2	Project Scaffolding	Section 2	`.claude/` dirs, `.env.example`, `.gitignore`, `CLAUDE.md`
3	MCP Servers	Section 3	Install recommended servers via `claude mcp add`
4	Hooks	Section 7	`~/.claude/hooks/block-secrets.py`, hooks in settings.json
5	Custom Agents	Section 10	`~/.claude/agents/` starter agent files
6	Keybindings	Section 13	`~/.claude/keybindings.json`
7	Settings	Section 13	Language, background tasks in settings.json

If user passed a specific category as argument (e.g., /devtools:code-env-setup hooks), skip the selection and go directly to that category.

Walk through each selected category with targeted AskUserQuestion calls. See WORKFLOW.md for per-category question flows.
Show confirmation summary — table of all proposed CREATE/MODIFY/SKIP actions. Ask user to confirm before executing.
Execute changes — create files, install MCP servers, update settings.
Post-setup summary — show what was configured, next steps, and remind user they can re-run /devtools:code-env-setup for incremental updates.

Key Rules

Never overwrite existing files without asking. Always offer merge/replace/skip.
Detect first — skip items already configured.
Use AskUserQuestion for every decision. Do not assume user preferences.
Merge settings — when updating settings.json, read existing content first and deep-merge.
MCP servers — ask scope (global -s user vs project -s project) before installing.
