Specification

Purpose: Show the relationship between project skills directory, global skills directory, and Claude Code's skill discovery

Components to show:
- Project repository structure (left side):
  ```
  ~/Documents/textbook-project/
  ├── skills/
  │   ├── glossary-generator/
  │   │   ├── SKILL.md
  │   │   └── templates/
  │   ├── quiz-generator/
  │   │   └── SKILL.md
  │   └── learning-graph-generator/
  │       ├── SKILL.md
  │       └── scripts/
  └── scripts/
      └── install-claude-skills.sh
  ```

- Global skills directory (center):
  ```
  ~/.claude/skills/
  ├── glossary-generator -> ~/Documents/textbook-project/skills/glossary-generator
  ├── quiz-generator -> ~/Documents/textbook-project/skills/quiz-generator
  └── learning-graph-generator -> ~/Documents/textbook-project/skills/learning-graph-generator
  ```

- Claude Code (right side):
  - Search icon looking in ~/.claude/skills/
  - Successfully finding skills via symlinks
  - Loading SKILL.md files

Connections:
- Dashed arrows from global skills to project skills (labeled "symlink")
- Solid arrow from install-claude-skills.sh to global skills (labeled "creates")
- Solid arrow from Claude Code to global skills (labeled "reads from")

Annotations:
- Label on project skills: "Original files (version controlled)"
- Label on global skills: "Symlinks (not version controlled)"
- Label on symlinks: "Points to original, no duplication"
- Callout: "When original files update, changes immediately available to Claude"
