Install Atlan CLI with OS-aware binaries (or Homebrew on macOS) only when missing, then configure baseline tenant auth/log settings.

## Install

```sh
git clone https://github.com/atlanhq/atlan-sample-apps /tmp/atlan-sample-apps && ln -s /tmp/atlan-sample-apps/.agents/skills/atlan-cli-install-configure ~/.claude/skills/atlan-cli-install-configure
```

## From README

Atlan CLI Configure Use this skill when CLI is the blocker. Keep it lightweight and safe. Trigger Trigger when a workflow needs CLI and command -v atlan fails. Trigger when the user explicitly asks to , reinstall, or configure Atlan CLI. Do not trigger for normal app tasks if atlan is already available and user did not request reinstall. Workflow Pre-check: run command -v atlan if found and reinstall is not requested, skip and move to config check. Detect platform (uname -s, uname -m, or PowerShell OS/arch on Windows). Use guidance from references/ -matrix.md: macOS: prefer Homebrew when available. otherwise use pre-built binary for detected OS/arch. never use go get or source-build as default path. Verify atlan --version atlan --help Configure CLI using references/config-template.md: ensure .atlan/config.yaml has atlanbaseurl and log settings. auth via ATLANAPIKEY env var (preferred) or atlanapikey in config. Configure datasource entries only if user has provided source details.
