# Agent setup prompt

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

```text
Set up Altertable for this AI agent.

1. Detect the active agent and project configuration.
2. Fetch and follow the matching setup guide:
   - Claude: https://altertable.ai/docs/agent-setup/claude.md
   - ChatGPT: https://altertable.ai/docs/agent-setup/chatgpt.md
   - 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
   - Other agents: https://altertable.ai/docs/agent-setup/other-agents.md
3. Preserve existing skills, plugins, and MCP servers. Merge configuration instead of replacing files, and ask before changing user-scoped configuration outside this project.
4. Do not copy credentials into project files. Use the client's normal OAuth or authentication flow.
5. Start or request a fresh agent session if discovery requires it.
6. 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.
7. Report which files or user settings changed, the installed source/version when available, and any step I still need to complete.
```
