## What wendy-get-started does, in the publisher's words

This skills-only plugin helps users begin before they have the CLI, hardware, or a Wendy Cloud account. It explains Wendy in one sentence, starts with the user's goal, and guides installation only when their chosen workflow needs it. It has no MCP dependency, installation hook, or automatic download.

Install this package through the supported plugin authoring or marketplace flow. Start a conversation with "Help me get started. I have not used Wendy before." The skill can guide setup without a connected tool. A local terminal is needed to execute setup on the user's machine; in a web-only chat it gives the user the appropriate commands.

For desktop use, install the CLI and run wendy mcp setup chatgpt. For a hosted connection, use the existing registered Wendy plugin and its account connection flow. Hosted use does not require the CLI. Neither installing this plugin nor opening a setup conversation erases storage or creates a simulator.
