The claim that "adal" is a supported client for the CLI installation command needs verification. The README references npx @21st-dev/cli@latest install <client> --api-key <key> which appears to be a separate CLI tool not present in this repository. Without evidence that the @21st-dev/cli tool actually supports "adal" as a client option, this could mislead users attempting to use the CLI installation method with AdaL CLI.

The API key placeholder format is inconsistent between the two files. In README.md (line 155), it uses "your-api-key", while in llms-install.md (line 72), it uses "<API_KEY>". For consistency with the rest of llms-install.md which uses "<API_KEY>" in lines 34, 58, and 75, both files should use the same placeholder format throughout. Choose either the descriptive form "your-api-key" or the template form "<API_KEY>" and apply it consistently across both documentation files.
