## When to trigger this skill
- `claude mcp list` returns empty or lacks `mxai-knowledge`
- `mxMCPProxy.exe` missing or version mismatch vs server
- mx-rules marker block in `~/.claude/CLAUDE.md` outdated or missing
- New PC / fresh Claude Code install
- User says "/mxSetup", "onboard me", or "neuer PC"
- Skills folder out of date (upstream updates in `MicrotronX/mxLore-skills`)
## Prerequisites
- **Required CLI tools:** `curl`, `unzip`, `claude` (Claude Code CLI). Git-Bash on Windows includes curl+unzip.
- **Node.js** — Recommended. Required for 5 of 8 hooks (Orchestrate, Recall-Gate, Recall-Outcome). Without Node.js the session runs with limited functionality (no state tracking, no Recall-Gate). Installation: https://nodejs.org/
## First Installation (with API key)
### Phase 1: MCP Connection
1. Check `claude mcp list` → already has `mxai-knowledge`? → "Use `--update`"
2. ?user: "Server URL? (e.g. http://localhost:8080/mcp)"
- URL must end with `/mcp`
3. Register MCP:
```bash
claude mcp add -s user --transport http mxai-knowledge "<SERVER-URL>" --header "Authorization: Bearer <API-KEY>"
```
4. `mx_ping()` → Success? Note admin_port. Error? → Abort.
