alignfirst-setup-guide
Setup-time companion to install or upgrade any subset of {docmap, workspace, alignfirst skills} in a consumer repo.
Examining code for the line that is wrong
What it does
A one-time companion for setting up a consumer repository. It installs any subset of three independent tools:
Use when asked to install, set up, or upgrade docmap, the workspace worktree system, or the AlignFirst skills
You don’t need to name it. Ask for the job in your own words — your AI loads the skill when the request matches.
What it can touch
Includes 16 scripts
Your AI can run these when the skill is used — on your computer in a coding tool (which asks first unless you have told it not to), or in the AI’s own sandbox in Claude and ChatGPT.
How we know
Found in the skill’s folder: assets/alignfirst-dev-kit-template/base/infra/openclaw/bin/apply-heartbeat-scratch.sh, assets/alignfirst-dev-kit-template/base/infra/openclaw/bin/apply-workspace.sh, assets/alignfirst-dev-kit-template/base/infra/openclaw/bin/assistant-kill.sh, assets/alignfirst-dev-kit-template/base/infra/openclaw/bin/assistant-maintenance.sh….
Installs other software
Following it will install packages (npm, pip, brew or similar). Those come from their own publishers, not from this skill.
How we know
The SKILL.md contains package-install commands.
Asks for administrator rights
Some of its commands use sudo or "run as administrator". Those can change anything on your computer.
How we know
Seen in its code. Read 2026-10-05, commit 665d2cb.
12 smaller things worth knowing
Gives itself administrator powers permanently; Runs a well-known installer straight from the web; Contains commands that delete or overwrite; Refers to a credentials file (SSH keys, cloud logins, tokens); and more. Usually legitimate — listed so nothing is hidden.

Launch7’s automated check read all 82 text files in this skill and matched none of its serious risk patterns. This is not a guarantee: a check like this can miss new or disguised tricks, and the author can change the files after the check.
How we know
Read 2026-10-05, commit 665d2cb by pipeline/trust/analyze.py — 40+ patterns for hidden text, prompt injection, downloads that run, credential access and more. It reads; it never runs the skill.

Read automatically from the skill’s own files on GitHub on 5 Oct 2026. Launch7 does not run or manually review skills: this lists what the check saw, and nothing here means “safe”. How we check
Add it to your AI
Partly. Upload it in Claude’s settings — the instructions work; the scripts need the full folder.
Built in your browser from the SKILL.md on GitHub — nothing passes through Launch7.
In Claude, open Customize → Skills, press +, then Create skill → Upload a skill, and choose the .zip.
Make sure code execution is switched on (Settings → Capabilities). Skills need it.
Start a new chat and ask for the job in your own words — Claude picks the skill up when it fits.
This skill ships 16 scripts beside its instructions. The download here is the SKILL.md alone — enough for the instructions, not for the parts that run code. Use the command route, or take the full folder from the repository.
How Claude does this: support.claude.com · checked 28 Sep 2026 · “Supported” means documented by the vendor; Launch7 has not run it end to end
