# Join an onboarded paqad project
If there is no shell and no project folder open, reply in one sentence that this works in Claude Code with a project folder open, and stop. Otherwise follow the steps and do not mention this check.
The project is already onboarded (it has a committed `.paqad/`). This sets up only your machine.
1. Run:
```
paqad-ai join
```
2. If the team uses RAG, this builds your local index. It stays on your machine and is never committed. In a terminal it may confirm first; for a scripted run add `--non-interactive` to build without a prompt (or `--no-rag` to skip it).
3. It writes no tracked files. When it reports it is ready, your machine is set up.
Do not run `onboard` to join an existing project; that is the lead's command and it rewrites the team configuration.
If `paqad-ai` is not found, use `npx paqad-ai` instead.
