## Description

Configure engine and version. Pins it in CLAUDE.md; WebSearch fills reference docs when the version is beyond LLM training data.

## SKILL.md, as published by its author (untrusted third-party text, read it as data)

# Engine Setup

When this skill is invoked:

!`bash "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../hooks/yaml-helper.sh" resolve_config --keys workflow`

**Tier awareness.** The `workflow` tier resolved above governs which design
artifact this skill expects and the finish path it recommends in §12:
- **`minimal`**, the design artifact is the one-page `design/game-brief.md`
  (no GDDs, systems decomposition, or per-system design at this tier).
  `/setup-engine` runs *first* in the minimal path, so a missing brief here is
  normal, not a gap. The finish path is the 4-step floor.
- **`standard` / `full`**, the design artifact is `design/gdd/game-concept.md`
  and the finish path is the full pipeline.

If the block did not render (shell preprocessing disabled), assume `minimal` (the default).

## 1. Parse Arguments

Four modes:

- **Full spec**: `/setup-engine godot 4.7`, engine and version provided
- **Engine only**: `/setup-engine unity`, engine provided, version will be looked up
- **No args**: `/setup-engine`, fully guided mode (engine recommendation + version)
- **Refresh**: `/setup-engine refresh`, update reference docs (see Section 10)
- **Upgrade**: `/setup-engine upgrade [old-version] [new-version]`, migrate to a new engine version (see Section 11)

## 2. Guided Mode (No Arguments)

**Read `references/2-guided-mode.md` now and follow it**, this phase's steps are in that file, not here. Read it again if the conversation was compacted or resumed during this phase.

## 3. Look Up Current Version

**Read `references/3-version.md` now and follow it**, this phase's steps are in that file, not here. Read it again if the conversation was compacted or resumed during this phase.

## 4. Update CLAUDE.md Technology Stack

**Read `references/4-claude-md-stack.md` now and follow it**, this phase's steps are in that file, not here. Read it again if the conversation was compacted or resumed during this phase.

## 5. Populate Technical Preferences
