Default ground fault outlet

I have a question about ground fault outlets. Would it be possable to jump off a ground fault outlet that is already installed next to the circut breaker box And this line goes thru a junction box, but it is still a single line and feeds to my shed, and in there are 2 outlets that are hopefully going to be fed from this ground fault outlet. Can this be done? Also, in the junction box, I have a pigtail on the ground wire and it is grounded to the metal junction box with a ground clip. Is that ok too? Your input would be a great help. Thanks Mike

Technically this would be fine in theory. However, do not overlook the other issues needing review like 225.31 and 225.32 .
