What does the Potenlab Init skill do?

It automates the creation of the .mcp.json file and the .claude/rules/ directory to ensure your project follows standard Claude Code configuration patterns.

What are the MCP Token Budget Guidelines?

These are best practices displayed after initialization that help you manage AI context, suggesting that MCP tools stay below 40% of the total context for better performance.

Does this skill overwrite my existing configuration?

No, the skill checks for existing files first. If they already exist, it simply reports their status without overwriting your current settings.

How do I run the initialization command?

Once the skill is installed, you can trigger the setup by typing /pl:init within your Claude Code interface.
