The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
3 rules. About 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 3 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈0
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
3
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Very specific: line 19
Use Given/When/Then with concrete values
- Very specific: line 22
Create step functions with raise NotImplementedError("Step not yet implemented")
- Very specific: line 23
Import shared helpers from tests/steps/helpers.py
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
Files
spec-compile
Compile a plain-English API spec into pytest-bdd feature files and step definition stubs.
Usage
/spec-compile <module-name>
Process
- Read the spec —
tests/specs/<module-name>.md - Generate feature file —
tests/features/<module-name>.feature- Map each API contract section to a Feature
- Map each behavior/constraint to a Scenario
- Use Given/When/Then with concrete values
- Generate step stubs —
tests/steps/test_<module-name>_steps.py- Import from
pytest_bdd - Create step functions with
raise NotImplementedError("Step not yet implemented") - Import shared helpers from
tests/steps/helpers.py
- Import from
- Report what was generated
Feature File Format
Feature: <Module> API Contract
As a developer using graphcrew
I want <module> to behave according to its spec
So that I can build reliable multi-agent systems
Scenario: <behavior description>
Given <precondition>
When <action>
Then <expected outcome>Rules
- One
.featurefile per spec - One step file per spec
- Step stubs raise
NotImplementedError— implementation comes during the IMPLEMENT phase - Reuse common steps from
tests/steps/common/where applicable - Feature files go in
tests/features/(gitignored — generated artifacts)
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.
No reviews yet
People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.
- It worked
- Partly
- It didn't
Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
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.
