Eclair Lightning Network Skill

Eclair is a Scala implementation of the Lightning Network. This skill helps you run eclair in Docker for development and testing, primarily on regtest.

Prerequisites

• Docker and Docker Compose installed
• (Optional) Bitcoin Core if not using the bundled docker-compose

Quick Start

Start the full regtest stack (Bitcoin Core + Eclair):

cd ~/.claude/skills/eclair/templates
docker-compose up -d --build   # First time: builds eclair from source (~5-10 min)
docker-compose up -d           # Subsequent runs: uses cached image
