-| Goal | Command |
+| Approved placement | Command |
 |---|---|
-| Install or upgrade the CLI | `bash scripts/bootstrap.sh` above, or the [official installer](https://github.com/ArchAstro/archdev#install) |
-| First run: login, repo, hooks for every harness, and an offer to install skills | `"$archdev" setup` |
-| Skills only, for every detected coding tool | `"$archdev" setup --skills` |
-| Hooks for every harness on the machine (also reinstalls opted-out ones) | `"$archdev" repo hook setup` |
-| Hooks for one harness | `"$archdev" repo hook setup --harness claude\|codex\|grok\|pi\|archdev` |
-| Verify | `"$archdev" repo status` (reports `hooks:<harness>` missing or stale) |
-
-Most `archdev` commands run inside Claude Code or Codex also reinstall that
-harness's missing or stale hooks and print one line saying so (not `setup`,
-`repo hook …`, `--help`, or `--version`, and never in Factory or daemon
-sessions). None of these reinstall a harness the user removed with
-`repo hook setup --uninstall`, which is recorded in
-`~/.archdev/hook-opt-out.json`; neither does full `setup` or the bootstrap.
-`repo hook setup` without `--harness`, or with `--force`, puts those back
-and clears the opt-out, so run it only when the user asks. `repo status`
-still reports an opted-out harness as `hooks:<harness> missing`: that is the
-user's choice, not something to fix.

+| User-wide | `"$archdev" repo hook setup` |
+
+Repository setup prepares Claude Code, Codex, Grok, Pi, and ArchDev, even
+before those tools are installed. User-wide setup detects installed harnesses.
+Use `--harness claude codex` only when the user selects particular tools.
+These are first-install commands, not repair commands. Repair existing hooks
+with `--refresh`, retaining `--local` for repository placement; this preserves
+personal uninstall opt-outs. Reinstall an opted-out tool only with separate
+approval: first verify that the resolved executable matches the harness PATH,
+then use `repo hook setup --harness <name> --force`, keeping the chosen scope.
+This is the narrowly approved opt-out-clearing case, not a readiness repair.
+Removals retain the same scope
+(`--uninstall --local` for repository hooks). Leave other tools' settings alone. Do not use `--force`
+to bypass an opt-out without reinstall approval, or any PATH mismatch. Ordinary commands may refresh
+already-installed user-wide hooks; they do not opt new harnesses in.
+
+Do not use full `archdev setup` as shorthand for this workflow. Use the
+installation guide's existing skill installer and scoped hook primitives.
