Strategic decision behind `lark-cli`'s packaging as a Skills package versus an MCP server, particularly in the context of Claude Code.

Technical Positioning
Clarifying the architectural and strategic choices for integrating `lark-cli` into the AI agent ecosystem, specifically regarding its role as a "Skills" provider.
SaaS Insight & Market Implications
This issue directly questions the architectural choice of packaging `lark-cli` as a "Skills package" rather than an "MCP server," especially given the absence of an official Claude Code MCP server from Lark. This indicates user confusion regarding the optimal integration strategy for AI agents. The user seeks to understand the rationale behind this decision. Market implication: clarity on integration paradigms is crucial for developers building AI agents. Ambiguity around "Skills" versus "MCP" can lead to suboptimal architectural choices or hesitation in adoption. Articulating the strategic advantages of the current packaging, or addressing the perceived gap, is essential for guiding developers and maximizing `lark-cli`'s utility within the AI agent ecosystem.

> 按照配置步骤,一个授权 直接提了个审批到我leader那 这不合理,config init的时候,我已经把权限申请和审判好了,auth不应该修改,而应该是仅授权。
