Acceptance Criteria

AC-1: Detection

• GIVEN a project with `.clinerules/` directory
• WHEN detectTools() runs
• THEN Cline is listed as detected

AC-2: Installation

• GIVEN user selects Cline
• WHEN installation completes
• THEN `.clinerules/specsmd-*.md` files exist
• AND files contain agent definitions

AC-3: Non-Detection

• GIVEN a project without `.clinerules/` directory
• WHEN detectTools() runs
• THEN Cline is NOT listed as detected
• BUT user can still select it manually
