Good morning, An environment validation program from the prompt: Please write a script that shows the versions of claude code, claude git gh and uv.

#!/usr/bin/env bash
# versions.sh — show installed versions of key dev tools

tools=(
  "claude:claude --version"
  "git:git --version"
  "gh:gh --version"
  "uv:uv --version"
)

echo "Tool Versions"
echo "============="

for entry in "${tools[@]}"; do
  name="${entry%%:*}"
  cmd="${entry#*:}"

  if command -v "${cmd%% *}" &>/dev/null; then
    version=$(${cmd} 2>&1 | head -n 1)
    printf "%-10s %s\n" "${name}" "${version}"
  else
    printf "%-10s %s\n" "${name}" "(not found)"
  fi
done

Then, the commands to install. Note, I am running macOS which provides pbpaste.

Good morning Philipp, Thanks for a great session yesterday.

I am working to get the application running with the scaffolding.md prompts. My responses to the askuser questions on lines 12-14 maybe my problem.

Thank you for your consideration. Warm regards, Chris
