# install.sh always overwrites deployed files

`install.sh` overwrites `~/.claude/` and `~/.claude/core/` unconditionally on every run. It does not merge, diff, or ask. The rationale: the source of truth is this repo. Editing deployed files directly is a usage error — `sync.sh` would overwrite those edits on the next pull anyway. Offering a merge path would imply that editing `~/.claude/CLAUDE.md` directly is a supported workflow, which it is not. If a local customisation is needed it belongs in a project-level override file, not in the deployed global config.
