You won't be allowed to package /usr/local in an rpm on OBS. /usr/local
is for 'local' installs.

You really should read the blog post I linked earlier. It's very basic
packaging quick start.

To answer the actual question: yes, you do have to specify what files
are part of a package in the %files section.

Or, as others pointed out: don't package anything that already exists.
Link it to your project.
