I agree, I find that just telling claude to use the CLIs I would have used anyway in the prompt works just fine. Use gh to do X, use az to do Y, build using Z. The harness handles the rest. All these MCPs, Skills, plugins, etc are just noise

Claude is not a simple technology. Why are you trying to stuff a 4-dimensional peg in a square hole.
