+# ECC for AdaL CLI
+
+This directory contains the ECC (Everything Claude Code) configuration for the AdaL CLI harness.
+
+## What is installed
+
+- `rules/ecc/` — shared coding rules and guidelines
+- `skills/ecc/` — reusable skills
+- `commands/` — slash commands
+- `AGENTS.md` — agent instructions
+
+## Manual install
+
+```bash
+bash ./install.sh --target adal --profile minimal
+```
+
+## Notes
+
+- The `adal` target installs into the project-level `./.adal/` directory.
+- AdaL's own config (`~/.adal/settings.json`, MCP servers, plugins) is **not** touched by ECC install.
+- Use `npx ecc doctor --target adal` to check install health.
