Prompt for Claude Code

Paste this into Claude Code. It installs each spell, leaves API keys and sign-ins to you, and ends with the command that restarts it with this weapon and charge.

Set up these tools for me in Claude Code.
Loadout: https://vibe-rpg-simulator.vercel.app/loadouts/support-queue-triage/

1. Intercom Plugin and MCP Server
   Source: https://github.com/intercom/claude-plugin-external
   I type in Claude Code:
     /plugin install intercom@claude-plugins-official

2. Anthropic Customer Support Plugin
   Source: https://github.com/anthropics/knowledge-work-plugins/tree/main/customer-support
   Run:
     claude plugin marketplace add anthropics/knowledge-work-plugins
     claude plugin install customer-support@knowledge-work-plugins

3. Linear MCP
   Source: https://linear.app/docs/mcp
   Run:
     claude mcp add --transport http linear-server https://mcp.linear.app/mcp
   I type in Claude Code:
     /mcp

How to do it:
- Skip anything that is already installed. Run the rest in order and check that each step worked.
- Commands under "I type in Claude Code" are mine to enter. List them for me at the end, in order.
- Never ask me to paste an API key or token into this chat. When a command needs one, such as YOUR_API_KEY, give me the full command to run in my own terminal.
- Ask me for any other value you can't work out, such as a project path.
- If a command asks a question or needs a browser sign-in or an open app, tell me what to do and wait.
- If a command fails, follow the install steps in the tool's source for Claude Code instead. Show me any command that is not on this list before you run it, and install nothing else.

When you're done, tell me what is ready and what still needs me. New tools load in a new session, so finish by telling me to restart Claude Code with Claude Sonnet 5.5 and reasoning effort medium:
claude --model sonnet --effort medium
