What it does when it runs

Install and configure YALC GTM-OS for first-time use. Use only after the user has decided to proceed with installation. Triggers on phrases like 'install YALC', 'configure YALC', 'set up the CLI', 'first-time install', 'scaffold ~/.gtm-os', '.env setup', 'set up YALC', or '/setup'. Installs the CLI if missing, writes a template .env file, captures company context from a website + LinkedIn, walks through preview review, commits to live, and recommends frameworks based on the resulting setup. Does NOT cover 'what is YALC' or general first-touch orientation — route those to the yalc-orientation skill.

Read from the skill and the 1 file bundled beside it. A skill’s own description is written to be selected by an agent, so it describes the job and not the dependencies.

Keys and connectors you must supply
  • ANTHROPIC_API_KEY
  • INSTANTLY_API_KEY
  • NOTION_API_KEY
  • UNIPILE_API_KEY
Hosts it reaches
No third-party host appears in the skill or its bundled files.
Tool permissions it declares
No allowed-tools in the frontmatter. It does act, so it runs under whatever permissions your session already grants.

Picked up without a restart. A project skill of the same name is shadowed by your personal one. For one repository only, swap ~/.claude/skills for .claude/skills. Claude Code docs ↗

The folder is the same in every client that implements the format — 46 of them — so if yours is not above, only the destination changes.

Before you install: this skill will not complete its job on a bare agent. It needs ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, INSTANTLY_API_KEY, NOTION_API_KEY, UNIPILE_API_KEY, which you have to obtain separately.

Reproduced in full from Othmane-Khadri/YALC-the-GTM-operating-system/blob/5686d1f2f526346133f78eef3349fc5a655757b4/.claude/skills/setup/SKILL.md, which is licensed MIT (repository). 154 words, 1 heading.

For "what is YALC" or "I just cloned this" first-touch intent, use the yalc-orientation skill instead. Use /setup only for installing and configuring once the user has decided to proceed.

Set Up YALC GTM-OS

Execute the setup procedure by following the steps in skills/setup.md.

Read that file now and execute every step in order. Ask the user for the required inputs if they were not provided up front:

  1. Their company website URL (required)
  2. Their LinkedIn profile URL (optional — improves voice extraction)
  3. A docs URL or local path (optional — improves positioning)
  4. A one-line ICP summary (optional — only if the website fetch is thin)

This is a conversational run. Walk the user through each phase: install + scaffold, key entry, capture, preview review, commit, doctor, framework recommendation. Never paste API keys into chat — the user fills ~/.gtm-os/.env in their editor and tells you when they're done.

Files bundled with it

These load only when the skill asks for them, so they cost nothing until it runs.
