When running functional evals, the temp workspace was missing the skill's .claude/settings.local.json, causing the Claude CLI to lose project-level configuration (e.g., AWS profile, MCP servers). Now copies the .claude/ directory from the skill folder into the with-skill workspace alongside scripts/, references/, and assets/. Fixes aws-samples#6

Problem
When running
skill-eval functional, the tool creates temp directories under/tmpas workspaces. The Claude CLI resolves project-level settings (.claude/settings.local.json) relative to the working directory, so any configuration in the skill's.claude/directory (e.g., AWS profile, MCP servers) is lost.Solution
Copy the skill's
.claude/directory into the with-skill temp workspace alongside the existingscripts/,references/, andassets/directories.Testing
skill-eval functionalon a skill that requires AWS credentials via.claude/settings.local.json. After the fix,benchmark.jsoncontains the expected skill output. Before the fix (and confirmed by re-running without.claude/settings.local.json),benchmark.jsonshowed permissions/authorization errors instead.Fixes #6
