## When to Use

- New developer onboarding
- Setting up a new environment file
- Adding a new project configuration
- Troubleshooting setup issues

## Modes

|------|---------|---------|
| **configure** | `/setup configure` | Auto-detect project type, prerequisites, setup commands |
| **learn** | `/setup learn` | Confirm and cache setup configuration |
| **guide** | `/setup` | Guide through setup steps (default) |
| **verify** | `/setup verify` | Verify setup is complete and working |

## Configure Mode

Auto-detect project setup requirements:

```
/setup configure

**Detects:**
- Project type (Node.js, Python, Go, Rust, etc.)
- Package manager (npm, yarn, pnpm, pip, cargo, etc.)
- Prerequisites (runtime versions, tools)
- Setup commands
- Test commands
- Environment file templates

**Detection sources:**
| File | Indicates |
|------|-----------|
| `package.json` | Node.js project |
| `pyproject.toml`, `requirements.txt` | Python project |
| `go.mod` | Go project |
| `Cargo.toml` | Rust project |
| `Gemfile` | Ruby project |
| `.env.example` | Environment template exists |
| `Taskfile.yaml` | Task runner available |
| `Makefile` | Make-based setup |

## Learn Mode

Confirm discovered configuration and save:

```
/setup learn
```
