Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.

One-shot bootstrap for the Simmer MCP server. Detects your agent runtime (Claude Code / Cursor / OpenClaw / Hermes / Codex / Grok Bot), installs simmer-mcp via npm, writes the right MCP config, prompts a restart, and verifies the tool handshake. Use after registering an agent on simmer.markets to run pre-built Simmer trading strategies through your MCP-aware agent.
Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.
if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'simmer-mcp-setup' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'simmer-mcp-setup' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named simmer-mcp-setup already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/SpartanLabsXyz/simmer-sdk' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'bb9effd502917cdf64eeb21604add3b7c10ac0c3' -- 'mcp/bundled-skills/simmer-mcp-setup' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'mcp/bundled-skills/simmer-mcp-setup' ~/.agents/skills/'simmer-mcp-setup' && rm -rf "$d"; fi
Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'simmer-mcp-setup' ~/.claude/skills/'simmer-mcp-setup' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
