Help me get set up with Orchestor. Based on my OS and agent, do the following: 1. **Install the CLI and log in.** On macOS / Linux, run `curl -fsSL https://orchestor.io/install | sh`, then `orc auth login`. On Windows, follow the [installation guide](https://orchestor.io/docs/en/cli/installation.md). 2. **Install the Plugin or Skills.** For Claude Code, run `claude plugin marketplace add orchestor-inc/orchestor-plugin` and `claude plugin install orchestor@orchestor`. For other supported agents, use `npx skills@latest add orchestor-inc/skills`. 3. **Connect MCP.** Follow the official setup instructions to connect to `https://mcp.orchestor.io/mcp`. Reuse the connection bundled with the Plugin and guide me through any reload and browser authentication steps. 4. **Choose a workspace and get started.** Run `orc workspaces list`, then select the intended workspace with `orc workspace use WORKSPACE_ID`. Verify the CLI with `orc brands list --json` and MCP with `brands_list`. Suggest relevant next steps based on the available brands. Reuse existing configuration and avoid duplicate installations. Do not display credentials. Report any incomplete steps. Do not modify data or start new measurements. - **[Orchestor Plugin](https://orchestor.io/docs/en/agent-resources/orchestor-plugin.md)** Give your coding agent AI search analysis skills, specialist agents, and slash commands.
