What problem does it solve?
This Skill helps you prepare a new machine or fresh environment for DataRobot enterprise AI and agent workflows by installing the required local tooling and validating that everything is ready to use.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Pre-flight validation: Detects which dependencies are already installed (and records versions) so you only install what’s missing.
- OS-aware setup: Guides Linux/macOS/WSL correctly and warns that native Windows is not supported for Agent Assist.
- Environment-safe SDK installation: Installs the DataRobot Python SDK and prediction client into a virtual environment to avoid PEP 668 system-Python issues.
- dr-cli authentication and plugin install: Authenticates via dr-cli, installs the Agent Assist plugin, and verifies both CLI and Python functionality.
- Safety guardrails: Explicitly instructs not to run
dr assist during setup and requires using an empty directory when it is eventually run.
Use Case: You’re starting a new project on a developer laptop and need to deploy agents, build them from scratch, and call DataRobot APIs—this Skill gets Python, dr-cli, Pulumi, Agent Assist, and supporting tooling installed and verified.
Quick Start
In a terminal on your machine, ask an AI to run the datarobot-setup Skill to audit your current installations, install any missing dependencies, authenticate dr-cli, install the Agent Assist plugin, and run the verification checks.
