# Agent Deck setup

Treat setup as three separate layers: daemon health, host transport, then folder assignment.

1. Run `agent-deck status` and check `http://127.0.0.1:1110/health` (or `<mcp-url>/health`
   from `.agent-deck/use.json` if present).
2. If agent-deck is missing, older than 2.1.0 (`agent-deck --version`), or the daemon is down, tell the user to run the matching fix:
   - Not installed (macOS, Node.js 20+, npm): `npx @agent-deck/cli@latest install`, then `export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"` (managed install: launcher in `~/.local/bin`, versions under `~/.agent-deck/`).
   - Outdated: `agent-deck upgrade` (`agent-deck upgrade --check` reports whether one is available).
   - Daemon down: `agent-deck start --daemon`.
   - `agent-deck doctor` prints any harness repair as `agent-deck setup --client <client>`; run it, then restart that host.
3. If the daemon is healthy but MCP tools are unavailable, repair the host transport:
   - **Codex:** verify the Agent Deck plugin is installed, enabled, and current. Its bundled
     `.mcp.json` must run `agent-deck mcp-launch`; reload or start a new task after changing
