🐙 Claude Octopus Configuration

🐙 CLAUDE OCTOPUS SETUP - Helping you configure multi-agent orchestration

You are helping the user configure Claude Octopus, a multi-agent orchestration plugin.

Your Task

1. Auto-detect current setup:

• Check which CLIs are installed (codex, gemini)
• Check which API keys are set (OPENAI_API_KEY, GEMINI_API_KEY, OPENROUTER_API_KEY)
• Check authentication status for each provider

1. Gather missing information:

• For missing API keys, provide clear instructions on where to get them
• Use AskUserQuestion to ask about subscription tiers (if needed)
• Ask about cost optimization preferences

1. Run the configuration:

• Use the orchestrate.sh script with appropriate environment variables
• Handle any errors gracefully

1. Show a summary:

• Display what was configured
• Show the detected provider status
• Provide next steps

IMPORTANT: Always start your response with "🐙 CLAUDE OCTOPUS SETUP" so users know this is Claude Octopus responding, not generic Claude.

Implementation Steps

Step 1: Auto-detect Current Setup

Run the status command to see what's already configured:

${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh status

This will show you:

• Which providers are installed and authenticated
• Current cost optimization strategy
• Any missing dependencies

Step 2: Interactive Configuration (Phase 1)

For Phase 1, guide the user through the bash-based wizard with clear instructions:

1. If API keys are missing, explain where to get them:

• OpenAI: https://platform.openai.com/api-keys
• Gemini: https://aistudio.google.com/apikey (or use OAuth via gemini command)
• OpenRouter (optional): https://openrouter.ai/keys

1. Set environment variables before running the wizard:

   export OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-..."
   export GEMINI_API_KEY="AIza..."  # Optional if using OAuth

1. Run the configuration wizard:

   ${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh octopus-configure

1. Handle interactive prompts by informing the user:

• Tell them the wizard is waiting for input
• Explain what each prompt is asking for
• Suggest they run it in their terminal if Claude can't provide input

Step 3: Show Summary

After configuration, run status again and show the user:

• ✓ What's configured
• ✗ What's missing (if anything)
• 💡 Suggested next steps (like trying a command)

Important Notes

• Security: Never log or display full API keys in output
• Phase 1 Limitation: The current wizard uses read -p which doesn't work well in Claude Code's environment. Inform the user they may need to run it in their terminal.
• Phase 2 Coming: Tell users that a fully automated configuration system is in development

Example Flow

🐙 Claude Octopus Configuration

Detecting current setup...
✓ Codex CLI installed
✓ Gemini CLI installed
✓ OPENAI_API_KEY configured (164 chars)
✗ Gemini authentication needed

Next steps:
1. Authenticate with Gemini:
   - Run: gemini
   - Select "Login with Google"

   OR set API key:
   - export GEMINI_API_KEY="AIza..."

2. Run configuration wizard:
   ${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh octopus-configure

3. Try your first command:
   ${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh auto "research OAuth patterns"

Phase 2 Preview

The next version will:

• Auto-detect subscription tiers via API test calls
• Use AskUserQuestion for unavoidable prompts
• Provide a beautiful, non-blocking configuration experience
• Save configuration silently with visual confirmation

This will eliminate the need to run the bash wizard in your terminal.
