From git-coach
Onboarding and environment setup for the git-coach skill set. Assesses your git experience level, checks your environment (git installed, version, Node.js for drills), and guides you to the right starting skill. Use when you're new to git-coach, want to set up git, need to check your environment, or when the current directory is empty and not a git repo. Triggers on 'teach me git', 'git setup', 'how do I get started with git', or when no git repo exists and the user seems to be a beginner. Skip when you already know which skill you need and the environment is ready.

If the current directory is empty and not a git repo:
If they choose drill → guide them to request one (which triggers git-drill).
If they choose init → run git init and guide them to git-guide-me for their first commit.
