Frequently Asked Questions about global-setup-assistant

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I set up global settings for Claude CLI on a new machine?

Global settings setup for Claude CLI is automated through an interactive wizard script that configures ~/.claude/settings.json and validates the installation. The wizard guides first-time configuration across new environments to reduce friction and misconfigurations.

What does MCP server integration do during installation?

MCP server integration during installation provides scripted steps and configuration updates to connect external servers. The setup wizard handles this optional integration as part of the one-time machine configuration workflow.

How do I validate my Claude installation after running the setup wizard?

Validate your Claude installation by checking the output of the claude --version command and verifying the existence of ~/.claude/settings.json. The setup wizard performs these validation steps automatically to confirm correct configuration.

Can I run the installation wizard from any directory?

The installation wizard should be run from the repository root directory. Execute the interactive setup script at ./scripts/claude-wizard.sh to ensure all relative paths for global settings and configuration resolve correctly.

Why is my first-time Claude configuration failing?

First-time configuration fails when the interactive wizard cannot write to ~/.claude/settings.json or the claude --version validation check does not pass. Ensure you run the setup script from the repository root with correct permissions.

Do I need any dependencies to use the setup wizard?

No dependencies are required to use the setup wizard. The script automates the one-time machine setup and validates the installation without needing external packages or prior environment configuration.
