Individual skill
project-setup
Set up a new project from this Next.js + Sanity starter step by step, from `sanity init --template` or a plain `git clone` to a running site and go-live. Checks what is already done, then walks through Node and pnpm, `pnpm install`, the Sanity project and tokens, `web/.env.local` and `studio/.env(.local)`, linking `sanity.blueprint.ts` (CORS + revalidate webhook, `pnpm blueprints:plan` / `blueprints:deploy`), the first content (Studio, or `pnpm seed` when the project has it), checking `pnpm dev` and the Studio, the optional rename and brand files, and go-live on Vercel, stopping for confirmation after each step. Use when the user asks how to set up, bootstrap or start a project from the starter, to continue a half-done setup, which env vars to set, what the Next steps screen means, or why a fresh clone doesn't run.

# Set up a new project, step by step
Walk the user through the steps below **in order, one at a time**:
- **Check first.** Each step starts with a check. If it shows the step is done, say so
in one line and move on. The skill often starts on a half-set-up repo.
- **Done when.** Each step ends with a condition. Don't move on until it holds, or the
user chooses to skip (then tell them what will break).
- **Stop between steps.** After each step, report in one or two lines what is done
and what the next step is, and wait for the user to confirm before you start it.
- **Ask only for what you can't detect**, at the step that needs it.
The user runs the commands that need their accounts or change Sanity or hosting. In
this file a leading `!` marks such a command: give it to the user to run in their
