I would love to spend a month researching how to take the pipelines and turn them into programs and polish everything up but I got a super reasonable request from @mvdbeek for a quick start. I think the easiest thing to do is just turn each pipeline into a skill (kind of like casting a Mold - but they aren't molds per se). So I have Claude working on that. After that foundry puts all of its built artifacts into casts/claude/skills/ and symlinks that into .claude/skills - so I think depositing the pipelines there should make them fairly easy to find for now and leverage along side the other casted skills also. That can in turn by symlinked into your own Claude directory home directory, etc.. I believe.
So the quick start is something like clone down the repo, link up the casted skills into your claude environment, (install foundry runtime (for schema validation) and gxwf from npm and make Planemo available via command-line in the environment, and run the pipelines. If you make changes based on the outcome of runs - make sure to direct Claude to change the Mold and recast it (it should know how to do this) instead of changing the skills directly. Many Molds also come with an eval.md command - which I'm really trying to make a generic mechanism for verifying the process and learning from it - like a validator function - but Claude keeps trying to make a test case list. My continued work on is being tracked maybe on #253.
