chore: update project documentation and descriptions for compatibility with Claude Code and MCP clients

- Revised project overview in CLAUDE.md to clarify integration with Claude Code and MCP-compatible clients.
- Updated README.md to reflect compatibility with Claude Code and enhance installation instructions.
- Modified plugin.json description to include support for Claude Code and MCP clients.
- Enhanced index.html meta descriptions and titles for better clarity on compatibility.
- Adjusted mcp-server README.md to emphasize compatibility with various clients.

 ## Project Overview
 
-Docker Developer Tools is a Cursor IDE plugin that integrates Docker and container workflows into Cursor's AI chat. It includes 17 skills, 10 rules, and a companion MCP server with 150 tools for live Docker CLI integration.

+## Compatibility
+
+This project works with any AI coding tool that supports skills, rules, or MCP:
+
+| Component | Cursor | Claude Code (terminal) | Claude Code in Cursor | Other MCP clients |
+|---|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|
+| **CLAUDE.md** context | Yes | Yes | Yes | - |

+| **10 Rules** (.mdc) | Yes | Via CLAUDE.md | Yes | - |
+| **150 MCP tools** | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
+
+> **Claude Code** reads `CLAUDE.md` automatically and can reference skills. The MCP server works with any client that supports the MCP stdio transport.
