setup

First-run experience for the harness. Three modes: Recommended (guided, ~3 min), Full Tour (guided + skill walkthrough, ~8 min), and Express (zero questions, ~30 sec). Installs hooks first, detects stack, configures harness.json, runs a live demo on real code, and prints a reference card.

# /do setup — First-Run Experience

Configures the harness for a specific project: installs hooks, detects stack, writes harness.json, and optionally demos the system on real code. Flag: `/do setup --express` skips mode selection and runs Express directly. Reference tables and layouts: docs/SETUP_REFERENCE.md.

## Orientation

**Use when:** first-run configuration of Citadel on a new project -- installs hooks, generates harness.json, scaffolds .planning/.
**Don't use when:** harness is already configured and you want to verify it (use /verify); adding a single skill to an existing project (copy SKILL.md manually).

## Protocol

### Step -1: ARCHIVE DETECTION (all modes, before anything else)

Run `ls docs/citadel/ 2>/dev/null`. If `docs/citadel/` exists and contains `.md` files with `citadel-archive: true` in frontmatter, extract the `exported-at` date and prompt once:
