## Getting started — 5-minute path

New to the plugin? Do these in order. Everything else can wait until you need it.

**1. Install the plugin** (above), then set the base env var in `~/.zshenv`:

```bash export MAKERSKILLS_CONFIG="$HOME/.config/makerskills" ```

Reload your shell.

**2. Run your first skill — start with `decide`.** No config required:

``` /decide ```

It'll ask what decision you're facing, pick the right questions from the 37signals framework, and archive the result with a revisit date. **That's the first-touch experience**: any skill in this plugin. Structured input → structured output → written to disk.

**3. Read one SKILL.md** to see the pattern:

```bash open ~/code/makerskills/skills/decide/SKILL.md ```

Each skill is a workflow
