What does the Welcome skill actually install?

It creates a structured directory system (memory, journal, contexts) and essential configuration files like CLAUDE.md and replacements.md to manage your workflow.

Can I use it with existing files?

Yes, the skill detects existing workspace files and offers options to either add to them or start fresh during the initialization process.

Do I need to run this every time I use Claude?

No, this is a first-run setup intended to bootstrap your environment. Once configured, TARS maintains the workspace automatically through core housekeeping functions.

Which integrations does it support?

It guides you through setting up Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers for Apple, Google, and Microsoft calendars, as well as task managers like Todoist, Linear, or Reminders.

How does it handle my personal information?

The information gathered (name, role, teams) is stored locally within your workspace files to provide context for Claude's future assistance.
