Eve Bootstrap

Eve Bootstrap

One skill that handles everything from zero to a working Eve project. It detects whether you're already authenticated and adapts:

• Already authenticated → skips to project setup
• Not authenticated → creates profile, requests access, waits for admin approval, auto-logs in, then sets up project

Step 1: Check CLI

eve --version

If this fails, install the CLI first:

npm install -g @anthropic/eve-cli

Step 2: Create Profile

Check if a profile already exists:

eve profile list

If no staging profile exists, create one:

eve profile create staging --api-url https://api.eve.example.com
eve profile use staging

Step 3: Check Auth Status

eve auth status

This calls the API — not a local file check. Two outcomes:

Already authenticated → go to Step 5

If eve auth status shows you're logged in, skip ahead to Step 5: Project Setup.

Not authenticated → continue to Step 4

Step 4: Request Access (New Users Only)

Find an SSH public key to use:

ls ~/.ssh/*.pub

Default: ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub. If no key exists, generate one:
