Verify completed work against the real artifact before declaring success. Use after implementation, configuration, migration, automation, or delegated work when compilation or self-report is not enough.
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
3 rules. 0 are common, 3 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 46 edited versions we read keep these.
3
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
0
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 9
Check the real outcome directly.
- Distinctive: line 12
Prefer a deterministic, rerunnable script over a one-time visual check.
- Distinctive: line 16
When verification fails, first confirm that the observation method is reading the intended instance, build, environment, and state.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 46 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Prove it works
Check the real outcome directly. A build, timestamp, cached screenshot, or agent summary is a useful signal but not proof of user-visible behavior.
Prefer a deterministic, rerunnable script over a one-time visual check. Keep its output visible to the reviewer. Commit the proof only when the work is large or auditable enough to justify a durable trail.
When verification fails, first confirm that the observation method is reading the intended instance, build, environment, and state.

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

Files found in the same public projects as a version of this one, more often than they turn up anywhere else. Each project counts once, large collections count for less, and this file's own repository is left out.

Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
