Auto tinker setup
Initialize or diagnose a local Auto-Tinker workspace and inspect machine/tool readiness. Use for first setup, a moved workspace, stale machine specifications, or a broken vault/index; this skill does not configure automation or mutate GitHub.From its SKILL.md

- 18 days oldThe repository was created 18 days ago. New is not bad, but a brand new repository carrying a familiar-sounding name is the shape a typosquat arrives in, and there has been no time for anyone else to find a problem with it.
- 0 stars0 stars. Stars are a popularity signal and not a quality one, but at this level it is likely that nobody has read this closely except its author, and you would be relying on your own review.

Auto-Tinker Setup
Create or repair a usable local workspace without placing personal data in tracked product files.
Invoke the CLI as auto-tinker; from an unlinked source checkout use npm --prefix <auto-tinker-product-repo> run cli -- followed by the same arguments.
Workflow
- Identify the intended workspace root. When the user is inside an Auto-Tinker source clone, prefer that clone itself. Use an external workspace only when the user explicitly chooses one or existing configuration points there.
- Run
auto-tinker init --workspace <path> --jsononly when initialization is requested or no.auto-tinker/config.mdexists. Preserve existing records. - Run
auto-tinker inspect-machine --workspace <path> --json. Record capability and credential presence only; never read or store tokens, keys, or secret values. - Run
auto-tinker doctor --workspace <path> --json. - If the index is missing or stale, run
auto-tinker index --workspace <path> --json; do not repair canonical state by editing SQLite. - Resolve every error in CLI order, then rerun
doctor. Read diagnostics.md for checks and safe remedies.
Required result
Report the resolved workspace, vault, product repository (when present), tinker repository root, index path, machine snapshot age, failed/waived checks, and the exact next chat prompt. State which paths are Git-ignored, that generated remotes are private by default, and that the viewer only produces copyable prompts.
Do not initialize GitHub repositories, enable automation, or set auto_public during setup. Route a separately requested remote mutation to $auto-tinker-publish and scheduler configuration to $auto-tinker-automate.
