  • Fires itselfAuto-invocation. Claude auto-loads it when your prompt matches the work.Auto-invocation is when the right skill fires by itself at the right moment, driven by a FLOW.md router and a hook, instead of you invoking it by name. It is the difference between a skill being installed and a skill actually getting used.Read the full definition →

/bedrock:setup — Vault Initialization

Plugin Paths

Templates and entity definitions are in the plugin directory, not in the vault root. Use the "Base directory for this skill" provided at invocation to resolve paths:

  • Entity definitions: `<base_dir>/../../entities/`
  • Templates: `<base_dir>/../../templates/{type}/_template.md`
  • Plugin CLAUDE.md: `<base_dir>/../../CLAUDE.md` (auto-injected into context)

Where `<base_dir>` is the path shown in "Base directory for this skill".

Overview

This skill bootstraps any folder into a fully functional Bedrock-powered Obsidian vault through an interactive guided flow. It creates directories, copies templates, configures the vault, scaffolds example entities with bidirectional wikilinks, checks dependencies, and guides the user through next steps.

**You are a setup agent.** Follow the phases below in order. Do not skip steps.

---

Phase 0 — Idempotency Check

Check if the vault is already initialized:

ls .bedrock/config.json 2>/dev/null

**If `.bedrock/config.json` exists:**

1. Read and display the current configuration:

   This vault is already initialized:
   - Language: <language>
   - Preset: <preset>
   - Domains: <domains>
   - Git strategy: <git.strategy or "commit-push" if absent>
   - Initialized at: <date>

2. Check if this vault is registered in the global vault registry:

   cat <base_dir>/../../vaults.json 2>/dev/null

If the registry exists, check if any entry has a `path` matching the current working directory.

  • **If registered:** display "Registered as vault `<name>`" alongside the config above.
  • **If NOT registered:** display "This vault is not yet registered in the global vault registry."

3. Ask the user: > "This vault is already initialized. What would you like to do?" > 1. **Reconfigure** — Update language, domains, git strategy, and regenerate vault CLAUDE.md (directories and entities are NOT touched) > 2. **Register only** — Register this vault in the global registry (if not already registered) without changing configuration > 3. **Skip** — Exit with no changes

  • **Reconfigure**: proceed to Phase 1, but set `RECONFIGURE_MODE = true`. In Phase 3, skip directory creation (3.1), template copying (3.2), Obsidian configuration (3.5), and example entity generation (3.6). Phase 3.7 (vault registration) still runs.
  • **Register only**: skip directly to Phase 3.7 (vault registration). If already registered, display "This vault is already registered as `<name>`. No changes made." and exit.
  • **Skip**: exit with "No changes made. Vault is already initialized."

**If `.bedrock/config.json` does NOT exist:** proceed to Phase 1 with `RECONFIGURE_MODE = false`.

---

Phase 1 — Language and Dependencies

1.1 Language Selection

Ask the user:

> "What language should vault content be written in?" > 1. **English (en-US)** *(default)* > 2. **Portuguese (pt-BR)** > 3. **Spanish (es)** > 4. **Other** — specify a locale code (e.g., `fr-FR`, `de-DE`, `ja-JP`) > > Press Enter for default (en-US).

Store the selected language as `VAULT_LANGUAGE`. This determines:

  • The language of example entity content
  • The language directive in the vault CLAUDE.md
  • The language instruction for all future skill output in this vault

1.2 Dependency Check

Check for external tools, environment variables, and MCP servers that enhance the Bedrock experience. **Never block initialization.**

**Dependencies to check:**

| Dependency | Check method | What it unlocks | |---|---|---| | graphify | Glob: `~/.claude/skills/graphify/SKILL.md` | **Required.** Extraction engine for all `/bedrock:learn` ingestion. Without it, /learn cannot function. | | docling | Bash: `command -v docling >/dev/null 2>&1` | **Required.** Universal file → markdown converter used by `/bedrock:learn` to ingest DOCX, PPTX, XLSX, HTML, EPUB, PDF, images, and other non-markdown formats. Without it, /learn can only ingest text-native formats. | | CONFLUENCE_API_TOKEN + CONFLUENCE_USER_EMAIL | Bash: `test -n "$CONFLUENCE_API_TOKEN" && test -n "$CONFLUENCE_USER_EMAIL"` | Confluence page ingestion via `/bedrock:learn` (API strategy). | | GOOGLE_ACCESS_TOKEN | Bash: `test -n "$GOOGLE_ACCESS_TOKEN"` | Google Docs and Sheets ingestion via `/bedrock:learn` (API strategy). | | claude-in-chrome MCP | ToolSearch: `select:mcp__claude-in-chrome__tabs_context_mcp` (succeeds = available) | **Optional.** Browser fallback for Confluence pages when API credentials are unavailable. |

1.2.1 Auto-install graphify if missing

If the graphify probe in the table above returns no file, attempt to install graphify silently before generating the dependency report. Execute this fallback chain in order, stopping at the first successful re-probe.

**Step 1 — pipx (preferred, isolated):**

command -v pipx >/dev/null 2>&1 && pipx install graphifyy && graphify install

Re-probe: `Glob: ~/.claude/skills/graphify/SKILL.md`. If the file now exists, stop — graphify is installed.

**Step 2 — pip (if pipx unavailable or Step 1 failed):**

Only if Step 1's re-probe still finds nothing, and Python 3.10+ is available:

{ command -v pip3 >/dev/null 2>&1 || command -v pip >/dev/null 2>&1; } && \
  python3 -c 'import sys; sys.exit(0 if sys.version_info >= (3, 10) else 1)' 2>/dev/null && \
  { pip3 install graphifyy 2>/dev/null || pip install graphifyy; } && graphify install

Re-probe. If found, stop.
