To apply this setup:
1. Read the user's existing workspace files (SOUL.md, AGENTS.md, USER.md).
2. Identify all {{PLACEHOLDER}} tokens in the workspace files below.
3. Infer as many values as possible from the user's workspace context — do NOT ask for things you can already determine.
4. Only ask the user about values you cannot infer.
5. Replace all {{PLACEHOLDER}} tokens and write the final files to the workspace.
6. Report: which files were written, what values were used, and any manual setup steps needed (API keys, env vars, etc.).
