Agent setup prompt

Copy this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or another AI agent with terminal and file access:

Set up Altertable for this AI agent.

1. Detect the active agent and project configuration.
2. Fetch and follow the matching setup guide:
   - Claude Code: https://altertable.ai/docs/agent-setup/claude-code.md
   - Codex: https://altertable.ai/docs/agent-setup/codex.md
   - Cursor: https://altertable.ai/docs/agent-setup/cursor.md
   For another compatible client, install the skills from https://github.com/altertable-ai/skills using its native plugin or Agent Skills workflow.
3. Configure the streamable HTTP MCP server named "altertable" at https://mcp.altertable.ai/mcp.
4. Preserve existing skills, plugins, and MCP servers. Merge configuration instead of replacing files, and ask before changing user-scoped configuration outside this project.
5. Do not copy credentials into project files. Use the client's normal OAuth or authentication flow.
6. Start or request a fresh agent session if discovery requires it.
7. Verify that the Altertable skills are discoverable and that the MCP server can authenticate. Call initialize before any other Altertable tool, then list the available catalogs.
8. Report which files or user settings changed, the installed source/version when available, and any step I still need to complete.

For a manual setup, choose Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor.
