OMD Setup

This skill is a setup wizard. Ignore unrelated context (open files, pending code changes, git/commits, etc.).

When you need to ask the user anything, use the

AskUser
tool and ONLY ask the wizard questions below.

This is the only command you need to learn. After running this, everything else is automatic.

Graceful Interrupt Handling

IMPORTANT: This setup process saves progress after each step. If interrupted (Ctrl+C or connection loss), the setup can resume from where it left off.

State File Location

  • .omd/state/setup-state.json
    - Tracks completed steps

Resume Detection (Step 0)

Before starting any step, check for existing state:

# Check for existing setup state
STATE_FILE=".omd/state/setup-state.json"

# Cross-platform ISO date to epoch conversion
iso_to_epoch() {
  local iso_date="$1"
  local epoch=""
  # Try GNU date first (Linux)
  epoch=$(date -d "$iso_date" +%s 2>/dev/null)
  if [ $? -eq 0 ] && [ -n "$epoch" ]; then
    echo "$epoch"
    return 0
  fi
  # Try BSD/macOS date
  local clean_date=$(echo "$iso_date" | sed 's/[+-][0-9][0-9]:[0-9][0-9]$//' | sed 's/Z$//' | sed 's/T/ /')
  epoch=$(date -j -f "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S" "$clean_date" +%s 2>/dev/null)
  if [ $? -eq 0 ] && [ -n "$epoch" ]; then
    echo "$epoch"
    return 0
  fi
  echo "0"
}

if [ -f "$STATE_FILE" ]; then
  # Check if state is stale (older than 24 hours)
  TIMESTAMP_RAW=$(jq -r '.timestamp // empty' "$STATE_FILE" 2>/dev/null)
  if [ -n "$TIMESTAMP_RAW" ]; then
    TIMESTAMP_EPOCH=$(iso_to_epoch "$TIMESTAMP_RAW")
    NOW_EPOCH=$(date +%s)
    STATE_AGE=$((NOW_EPOCH - TIMESTAMP_EPOCH))
  else
    STATE_AGE=999999  # Force fresh start if no timestamp
  fi
  if [ "$STATE_AGE" -gt 86400 ]; then
    echo "Previous setup state is more than 24 hours old. Starting fresh."
    rm -f "$STATE_FILE"
  else
    LAST_STEP=$(jq -r ".lastCompletedStep // 0" "$STATE_FILE" 2>/dev/null || echo "0")
    TIMESTAMP=$(jq -r .timestamp "$STATE_FILE" 2>/dev/null || echo "unknown")
    echo "Found previous setup session (Step $LAST_STEP completed at $TIMESTAMP)"
  fi
fi

If state exists, use

AskUser
to prompt exactly:

  1. [question] Found a previous setup session. What should I do? [topic] Resume [option] Resume from last step [option] Start fresh (clear saved state)

If user chooses "Start fresh":

rm -f ".omd/state/setup-state.json"
echo "Previous state cleared. Starting fresh setup."

Step 0.5: Always Ask Parallelism (Required)

MANDATORY: Regardless of whether the user resumes or starts fresh, you MUST ask for

maxBackgroundTasks
in this run.

If resuming, try to infer the scope from the state file:

# Optional: infer scope from state file
CONFIG_TYPE=$(jq -r '.configType // empty' ".omd/state/setup-state.json" 2>/dev/null || true)

Interpretation:

  • If
    CONFIG_TYPE
    starts with
    local
    → scope =
    Local (this project)
  • If
    CONFIG_TYPE
    starts with
    global
    → scope =
    Global (all projects)
  • Otherwise, ask Step 1 (scope) again.

Save Progress Helper

After completing each major step, save progress:

# Save setup progress (call after each step)
# Usage: save_setup_progress STEP_NUMBER
save_setup_progress() {
  mkdir -p .omd/state
  cat > ".omd/state/setup-state.json" << EOF
{
  "lastCompletedStep": $1,
  "timestamp": "$(date -Iseconds)",
  "configType": "${CONFIG_TYPE:-unknown}"
}
EOF
}

Clear State on Completion

After successful setup completion (Step 7/8), remove the state file:

rm -f ".omd/state/setup-state.json"
echo "Setup completed successfully. State cleared."

Usage Modes

This skill handles three scenarios:

  1. Initial Setup (no flags): First-time installation wizard
  2. Local Configuration (
    --local
    )
    : Configure project-specific settings (.factory/FACTORY.md)
  3. Global Configuration (
    --global
    )
    : Configure global settings (~/.factory/FACTORY.md)

Mode Detection

Check for flags in the user's invocation:

  • If
    --local
    flag present → Skip to Local Configuration (Step 2A)
  • If
    --global
    flag present → Skip to Global Configuration (Step 2B)
  • If no flags → Run Initial Setup wizard (Step 1)

IMPORTANT: Always run Step 1.1 (parallelism) even when

--local
or
--global
is used.

Step 1: Initial Setup Wizard (Default Behavior)

Note: If resuming and lastCompletedStep >= 1, skip to the appropriate step based on configType.

Immediately use

AskUser
to prompt exactly:

  1. [question] Where should I configure oh-my-droid? [topic] Scope [option] Local (this project) [option] Global (all projects)

Step 1.1: Configure Parallelism (maxBackgroundTasks)

IMPORTANT: Always run this step (even if

maxBackgroundTasks
is already set, and even when resuming).

Use

AskUser
to prompt:

  1. [question] How many background tasks should I allow in parallel? [topic] Parallelism [option] Keep current [option] 2 [option] 5 [option] 10 [option] 20

If the user chooses Keep current, skip updating settings.

Otherwise, update BOTH:

  1. Factory Droid global settings:
    ~/.factory/settings.json
    → top-level
    maxBackgroundTasks
  2. oh-my-droid config (so OMD can read it):
    • If scope is Local
      ./.factory/droid.jsonc
      permissions.maxBackgroundTasks
    • If scope is Global
      ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-~/.config}/oh-my-droid/config.jsonc
      permissions.maxBackgroundTasks

Rules:

  • Default to 5 if the user provides an invalid value
  • Clamp to 1..20

Step 2A: Local Configuration (--local flag or user chose LOCAL)

CRITICAL: This ALWAYS downloads fresh FACTORY.md from GitHub to the local project. DO NOT use the Write tool - use bash curl exclusively.

Create Local .factory Directory

# Create .factory directory in current project
mkdir -p .factory && echo ".factory directory ready"

Download Fresh FACTORY.md

# Extract old version before download
OLD_VERSION=$(grep -m1 "^# oh-my-droid" .factory/FACTORY.md 2>/dev/null | grep -oE 'v[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+' || echo "none")

# Backup existing FACTORY.md before overwriting (if it exists)
if [ -f ".factory/FACTORY.md" ]; then
  BACKUP_DATE=$(date +%Y-%m-%d)
  BACKUP_PATH=".factory/FACTORY.md.backup.${BACKUP_DATE}"
  cp .factory/FACTORY.md "$BACKUP_PATH"
  echo "Backed up existing FACTORY.md to $BACKUP_PATH"
fi

# Download fresh FACTORY.md from GitHub
curl -fsSL "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MeroZemory/oh-my-droid/main/docs/FACTORY.md" -o .factory/FACTORY.md && \
echo "Downloaded FACTORY.md to .factory/FACTORY.md"

# Extract new version and report
NEW_VERSION=$(grep -m1 "^# oh-my-droid" .factory/FACTORY.md 2>/dev/null | grep -oE 'v[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+' || echo "unknown")
if [ "$OLD_VERSION" = "none" ]; then
  echo "Installed FACTORY.md: $NEW_VERSION"
elif [ "$OLD_VERSION" = "$NEW_VERSION" ]; then
  echo "FACTORY.md unchanged: $NEW_VERSION"
else
  echo "Updated FACTORY.md: $OLD_VERSION -> $NEW_VERSION"
fi

Note: The downloaded FACTORY.md includes Context Persistence instructions with

<remember>
tags for surviving conversation compaction.

Note: If an existing FACTORY.md is found, it will be backed up to

.factory/FACTORY.md.backup.YYYY-MM-DD
before downloading the new version.

MANDATORY: Always run this command. Do NOT skip. Do NOT use Write tool.

FALLBACK if curl fails: Tell user to manually download from: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MeroZemory/oh-my-droid/main/docs/FACTORY.md

Verify Plugin Installation

grep -q "oh-my-droid" ~/.factory/settings.json && echo "Plugin verified" || echo "Plugin NOT found - run: droid /plugin install oh-my-droid@oh-my-droid"

Confirm Local Configuration Success

After completing local configuration, save progress and report:

# Save progress - Step 2 complete (Local config)
mkdir -p .omd/state
cat > ".omd/state/setup-state.json" << EOF
{
  "lastCompletedStep": 2,
  "timestamp": "$(date -Iseconds)",
  "configType": "local"
}
EOF

OMC Project Configuration Complete

  • FACTORY.md: Updated with latest configuration from GitHub at ./.factory/FACTORY.md
  • Backup: Previous FACTORY.md backed up to
    .factory/FACTORY.md.backup.YYYY-MM-DD
    (if existed)
  • Scope: PROJECT - applies only to this project
  • Hooks: Provided by plugin (no manual installation needed)
  • Agents: 28+ available (base + tiered variants)
  • Model routing: Haiku/Sonnet/Opus based on task complexity

Note: This configuration is project-specific and won't affect other projects or global settings.

If

--local
flag was used, clear state and STOP HERE:

rm -f ".omd/state/setup-state.json"

Do not continue to HUD setup or other steps.

Step 2B: Global Configuration (--global flag or user chose GLOBAL)

CRITICAL: This ALWAYS downloads fresh FACTORY.md from GitHub to global config. DO NOT use the Write tool - use bash curl exclusively.

Download Fresh FACTORY.md

# Extract old version before download
OLD_VERSION=$(grep -m1 "^# oh-my-droid" ~/.factory/FACTORY.md 2>/dev/null | grep -oE 'v[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+' || echo "none")

# Backup existing FACTORY.md before overwriting (if it exists)
if [ -f "$HOME/.factory/FACTORY.md" ]; then
  BACKUP_DATE=$(date +%Y-%m-%d)
  BACKUP_PATH="$HOME/.factory/FACTORY.md.backup.${BACKUP_DATE}"
  cp "$HOME/.factory/FACTORY.md" "$BACKUP_PATH"
  echo "Backed up existing FACTORY.md to $BACKUP_PATH"
fi

# Download fresh FACTORY.md to global config
curl -fsSL "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MeroZemory/oh-my-droid/main/docs/FACTORY.md" -o ~/.factory/FACTORY.md && \
echo "Downloaded FACTORY.md to ~/.factory/FACTORY.md"

# Extract new version and report
NEW_VERSION=$(grep -m1 "^# oh-my-droid" ~/.factory/FACTORY.md 2>/dev/null | grep -oE 'v[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+' || echo "unknown")
if [ "$OLD_VERSION" = "none" ]; then
  echo "Installed FACTORY.md: $NEW_VERSION"
elif [ "$OLD_VERSION" = "$NEW_VERSION" ]; then
  echo "FACTORY.md unchanged: $NEW_VERSION"
else
  echo "Updated FACTORY.md: $OLD_VERSION -> $NEW_VERSION"
fi

Note: If an existing FACTORY.md is found, it will be backed up to

~/.factory/FACTORY.md.backup.YYYY-MM-DD
before downloading the new version.

Clean Up Legacy Hooks (if present)

Check if old manual hooks exist and remove them to prevent duplicates:

# Remove legacy bash hook scripts (now handled by plugin system)
rm -f ~/.factory/hooks/keyword-detector.sh
rm -f ~/.factory/hooks/stop-continuation.sh
rm -f ~/.factory/hooks/persistent-mode.sh
rm -f ~/.factory/hooks/session-start.sh
echo "Legacy hooks cleaned"

Check

~/.factory/settings.json
for manual hook entries. If the "hooks" key exists with UserPromptSubmit, Stop, or SessionStart entries pointing to bash scripts, inform the user:

Note: Found legacy hooks in settings.json. These should be removed since the plugin now provides hooks automatically. Remove the "hooks" section from ~/.factory/settings.json to prevent duplicate hook execution.

Verify Plugin Installation

grep -q "oh-my-droid" ~/.factory/settings.json && echo "Plugin verified" || echo "Plugin NOT found - run: droid /plugin install oh-my-droid@oh-my-droid"

Confirm Global Configuration Success

After completing global configuration, save progress and report:

# Save progress - Step 2 complete (Global config)
mkdir -p .omd/state
cat > ".omd/state/setup-state.json" << EOF
{
  "lastCompletedStep": 2,
  "timestamp": "$(date -Iseconds)",
  "configType": "global"
}
EOF

OMC Global Configuration Complete

  • FACTORY.md: Updated with latest configuration from GitHub at ~/.factory/FACTORY.md
  • Backup: Previous FACTORY.md backed up to
    ~/.factory/FACTORY.md.backup.YYYY-MM-DD
    (if existed)
  • Scope: GLOBAL - applies to all Factory Droid sessions
  • Hooks: Provided by plugin (no manual installation needed)
  • Agents: 28+ available (base + tiered variants)
  • Model routing: Haiku/Sonnet/Opus based on task complexity

Note: Hooks are now managed by the plugin system automatically. No manual hook installation required.

If

--global
flag was used, clear state and STOP HERE:

rm -f ".omd/state/setup-state.json"

Do not continue to HUD setup or other steps.

Step 3: Setup HUD Statusline

Note: If resuming and lastCompletedStep >= 3, skip to Step 3.5.

The HUD shows real-time status in Factory Droid's status bar. Invoke the hud skill to set up and configure:

Use the Skill tool to invoke:

hud
with args:
setup

This will:

  1. Install the HUD wrapper script to
    ~/.factory/hud/omd-hud.mjs
  2. Configure
    statusLine
    in
    ~/.factory/settings.json
  3. Report status and prompt to restart if needed

After HUD setup completes, save progress:

# Save progress - Step 3 complete (HUD setup)
mkdir -p .omd/state
CONFIG_TYPE=$(cat ".omd/state/setup-state.json" 2>/dev/null | grep -oE '"configType":\s*"[^"]+"' | cut -d'"' -f4 || echo "unknown")
cat > ".omd/state/setup-state.json" << EOF
{
  "lastCompletedStep": 3,
  "timestamp": "$(date -Iseconds)",
  "configType": "$CONFIG_TYPE"
}
EOF

Step 3.5: Clear Stale Plugin Cache

Clear old cached plugin versions to avoid conflicts:

# Clear stale plugin cache versions
CACHE_DIR="$HOME/.factory/plugins/cache/oh-my-droid/oh-my-droid"
if [ -d "$CACHE_DIR" ]; then
  LATEST=$(ls -1 "$CACHE_DIR" | sort -V | tail -1)
  CLEARED=0
  for dir in "$CACHE_DIR"/*; do
    if [ "$(basename "$dir")" != "$LATEST" ]; then
      rm -rf "$dir"
      CLEARED=$((CLEARED + 1))
    fi
  done
  [ $CLEARED -gt 0 ] && echo "Cleared $CLEARED stale cache version(s)" || echo "Cache is clean"
else
  echo "No cache directory found (normal for new installs)"
fi

Step 3.6: Check for Updates

Notify user if a newer version is available:

# Detect installed version
INSTALLED_VERSION=""

# Try cache directory first
if [ -d "$HOME/.factory/plugins/cache/oh-my-droid/oh-my-droid" ]; then
  INSTALLED_VERSION=$(ls -1 "$HOME/.factory/plugins/cache/oh-my-droid/oh-my-droid" | sort -V | tail -1)
fi

# Try .omd-version.json second
if [ -z "$INSTALLED_VERSION" ] && [ -f ".omd-version.json" ]; then
  INSTALLED_VERSION=$(grep -oE '"version":\s*"[^"]+' .omd-version.json | cut -d'"' -f4)
fi

# Try FACTORY.md header third (local first, then global)
if [ -z "$INSTALLED_VERSION" ]; then
  if [ -f ".factory/FACTORY.md" ]; then
    INSTALLED_VERSION=$(grep -m1 "^# oh-my-droid" .factory/FACTORY.md 2>/dev/null | grep -oE 'v[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+' | sed 's/^v//')
  elif [ -f "$HOME/.factory/FACTORY.md" ]; then
    INSTALLED_VERSION=$(grep -m1 "^# oh-my-droid" "$HOME/.factory/FACTORY.md" 2>/dev/null | grep -oE 'v[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+' | sed 's/^v//')
  fi
fi

# Check npm for latest version
LATEST_VERSION=$(npm view oh-my-droid version 2>/dev/null)

if [ -n "$INSTALLED_VERSION" ] && [ -n "$LATEST_VERSION" ]; then
  # Simple version comparison (assumes semantic versioning)
  if [ "$INSTALLED_VERSION" != "$LATEST_VERSION" ]; then
    echo ""
    echo "UPDATE AVAILABLE:"
    echo "  Installed: v$INSTALLED_VERSION"
    echo "  Latest:    v$LATEST_VERSION"
    echo ""
    echo "To update, run: droid /plugin install oh-my-droid@oh-my-droid"
  else
    echo "You're on the latest version: v$INSTALLED_VERSION"
  fi
elif [ -n "$LATEST_VERSION" ]; then
  echo "Latest version available: v$LATEST_VERSION"
fi

Step 3.7: Enable Background Processes (Required)

Background processes are required for true parallel shell execution (e.g., running multiple long

Execute
commands concurrently).

This must be set globally in

~/.factory/settings.json
(there is no per-project equivalent).

python3 - <<'PY'
import json
from pathlib import Path

settings_path = Path.home() / '.factory' / 'settings.json'
settings_path.parent.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True)

try:
  data = json.loads(settings_path.read_text('utf-8')) if settings_path.exists() else {}
except Exception:
  data = {}

data['allowBackgroundProcesses'] = True
settings_path.write_text(json.dumps(data, indent=2) + '\n', encoding='utf-8')
print('Enabled allowBackgroundProcesses in', settings_path)
print('NOTE: You may need to restart Droid (or start with --allow-background-processes) for it to take effect.')
PY

If the user wants to use background processes immediately in the current session and it still reports "Fire and forget is disabled", instruct them to restart Droid.

Step 3.8: Set Default Execution Mode

Use

AskUser
to prompt:

  1. [question] Which execution mode should be the default when I interpret requests like "fast" / "parallel"? [topic] Default-Mode [option] ultrawork [option] ecomode

Store the preference in

~/.factory/.omd-config.json
:

# Read existing config or create empty object
CONFIG_FILE="$HOME/.factory/.omd-config.json"
mkdir -p "$(dirname "$CONFIG_FILE")"

if [ -f "$CONFIG_FILE" ]; then
  EXISTING=$(cat "$CONFIG_FILE")
else
  EXISTING='{}'
fi

# Set defaultExecutionMode (replace USER_CHOICE with "ultrawork" or "ecomode")
echo "$EXISTING" | jq --arg mode "USER_CHOICE" '. + {defaultExecutionMode: $mode, configuredAt: (now | todate)}' > "$CONFIG_FILE"
echo "Default execution mode set to: USER_CHOICE"

Note: This preference ONLY affects generic keywords ("fast", "parallel"). Explicit keywords ("ulw", "eco") always override this preference.

Step 3.9: Install CLI Analytics Tools (Optional)

The OMD CLI provides standalone token analytics commands (

omd stats
,
omd agents
,
omd tui
).

Ask user: "Would you like to install the OMD CLI for standalone analytics? (Recommended for tracking token usage and costs)"

Options:

  1. Yes (Recommended) - Install CLI tools globally for
    omd stats
    ,
    omd agents
    , etc.
  2. No - Skip CLI installation, use only plugin skills

CLI Installation Note

The CLI (

omc
command) is no longer supported via npm/bun global install.

All functionality is available through the plugin system:

  • Use
    /help
    for guidance
  • Use
    /doctor
    for diagnostics

Skip this step - the plugin provides all features.

Step 4: Verify Plugin Installation

grep -q "oh-my-droid" ~/.factory/settings.json && echo "Plugin verified" || echo "Plugin NOT found - run: droid /plugin install oh-my-droid@oh-my-droid"

Step 5: Offer MCP Server Configuration

MCP servers extend Factory Droid with additional tools (web search, GitHub, etc.).

Ask user: "Would you like to configure MCP servers for enhanced capabilities? (Context7, Exa search, GitHub, etc.)"

If yes, invoke the mcp-setup skill:

/mcp-setup

If no, skip to next step.

Step 6: Detect Upgrade from 2.x

Check if user has existing configuration:

# Check for existing 2.x artifacts
ls ~/.factory/commands/ralph-loop.md 2>/dev/null || ls ~/.factory/commands/ultrawork.md 2>/dev/null

If found, this is an upgrade from 2.x.

Step 7: Show Welcome Message

For New Users:

OMD Setup Complete!

You don't need to learn any commands. I now have intelligent behaviors that activate automatically.

WHAT HAPPENS AUTOMATICALLY:
- Complex tasks -> I parallelize and delegate to specialists
- "plan this" -> I start a planning interview
- "don't stop until done" -> I persist until verified complete
- "stop" or "cancel" -> I intelligently stop current operation

MAGIC KEYWORDS (optional power-user shortcuts):
Just include these words naturally in your request:

| Keyword | Effect | Example |
|---------|--------|---------|
| ralph | Persistence mode | "ralph: fix the auth bug" |
| ralplan | Iterative planning | "ralplan this feature" |
| ulw | Max parallelism | "ulw refactor the API" |
| eco | Token-efficient mode | "eco refactor the API" |
| plan | Planning interview | "plan the new endpoints" |

**ralph includes ultrawork:** When you activate ralph mode, it automatically includes ultrawork's parallel execution. No need to combine keywords.

MCP SERVERS:
Run /mcp-setup to add tools like web search, GitHub, etc.

HUD STATUSLINE:
The status bar now shows OMD state. Restart Factory Droid to see it.

CLI ANALYTICS (if installed):
- omc           - Full dashboard (stats + agents + cost)
- omd stats     - View token usage and costs
- omd agents    - See agent breakdown by cost
- omd tui       - Launch interactive TUI dashboard

That's it! Just use Factory Droid normally.

For Users Upgrading from 2.x:

OMD Setup Complete! (Upgraded from 2.x)

GOOD NEWS: Your existing commands still work!
- /ralph, /ultrawork, /plan, etc. all still function

WHAT'S NEW in 3.0:
You no longer NEED those commands. Everything is automatic now:
- Just say "don't stop until done" instead of /ralph
- Just say "fast" or "parallel" instead of /ultrawork
- Just say "plan this" instead of /plan
- Just say "stop" instead of /cancel

MAGIC KEYWORDS (power-user shortcuts):
| Keyword | Same as old... | Example |
|---------|----------------|---------|
| ralph | /ralph | "ralph: fix the bug" |
| ralplan | /ralplan | "ralplan this feature" |
| ulw | /ultrawork | "ulw refactor API" |
| eco | (new!) | "eco fix all errors" |
| plan | /plan | "plan the endpoints" |

HUD STATUSLINE:
The status bar now shows OMD state. Restart Factory Droid to see it.

CLI ANALYTICS (if installed):
- omc           - Full dashboard (stats + agents + cost)
- omd stats     - View token usage and costs
- omd agents    - See agent breakdown by cost
- omd tui       - Launch interactive TUI dashboard

Your workflow won't break - it just got easier!

Step 8: Ask About Starring Repository

First, check if

gh
CLI is available and authenticated:

gh auth status &>/dev/null

If gh is available and authenticated:

Use

AskUser
to prompt:

  1. [question] Would you like to star the oh-my-droid GitHub repo? [topic] Star [option] Yes, star it [option] No [option] Maybe later

If user chooses "Yes, star it!":

gh api -X PUT /user/starred/MeroZemory/oh-my-droid 2>/dev/null && echo "Thanks for starring! ⭐" || true

Note: Fail silently if the API call doesn't work - never block setup completion.

If gh is NOT available or not authenticated:

echo ""
echo "If you enjoy oh-my-droid, consider starring the repo:"
echo "  https://github.com/MeroZemory/oh-my-droid"
echo ""

Clear Setup State on Completion

After Step 8 completes (regardless of star choice), clear the setup state:

# Setup complete - clear state file
rm -f ".omd/state/setup-state.json"
echo "Setup completed successfully!"

Keeping Up to Date

After installing oh-my-droid updates (via npm or plugin update), run:

  • /omd-setup --local
    to update project config
  • /omd-setup --global
    to update global config

This ensures you have the newest features and agent configurations.
