## Optional

### Progression

- ml_skills: Skill gating and XP rewards. Recipes can require an unlocked skill or a level, stay hidden until the skill is learned, and pay XP into the ml_skills tree with automatic category routing. Configured through `Config.ExternalSkills`

### Fuel

- ml_fuel: Refuel benches with reusable jerrycans. With `Config.Fuel.mlFuel.enabled`, any item carrying `fuelAmount` and `fuelType` metadata is treated as a fuel container: it is kept in the inventory and only emptied, never consumed

### Other

- ml_vehiclecraft: When started, the recipe editor can list buildable vehicles from it
- ml_hud: The shipped `open/client.lua` contains a sample stress call wired to ml_hud, wrapped in a safe call. Remove or replace it freely
