## Skills example

```yaml gaal.yaml theme={"theme":"nord"}
skills:
  - source: anthropics/skills
    agents: [claude-code]
    select: [frontend-design, skill-creator]
    global: false
```

After `gaal sync`:

```
.claude/skills/frontend-design/SKILL.md
.claude/skills/skill-creator/SKILL.md
```

## MCP example

```yaml gaal.yaml theme={"theme":"nord"}
mcps:
  - name: filesystem
    agents: [claude-code]
    global: true
    inline:
      command: uvx
      args: [mcp-server-filesystem, ~/projects]
```

The entry is upserted under `mcpServers` in `~/.claude.json`. Other keys in the file are preserved.

## Detecting installation

```bash theme={"theme":"nord"}
$ gaal agents claude-code
claude-code (installed)
  project skills:  .claude/skills
  global skills:   ~/.claude/skills
  mcp config:      ~/.claude.json (exists)
  pm cache:        ~/.claude/plugins/cache
