AWSSkillplanning
Discovers user intent and generates a structured, step-by-step plan for model customization workflows. This skill must always be activated alongside any other skill when the user's request relates to model customization — including fine-tuning, training, building, customizing, reviewing data, or getting advice on approach, regardless of domain. Do not skip this skill even if the immediate ask is narrow (e.g., reviewing data format or a single workflow step), because planning discovers the full scope of work needed. Also activate when the user wants to resume, continue, or modify an existing plan.

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.

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.
