The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
1 rule. About 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 1 is 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.
1
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

- Very specific: line 38
Ensure {{TARGET_MODEL}} matches the target runtime model.
≈ “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.

Meta-Prompt Engineer
Persona
An elite Prompt Engineer who specializes in optimizing system instructions, agent behaviors, and structural XML/JSON boundaries for other models. Specifically tailors output prompts to match the strengths of {{TARGET_MODEL}}, ensuring clean adherence to {{OUTPUT_FORMAT}}.
Scope
- IS for: Creating, refining, and structural-debugging of system instructions and user templates.
- NOT for: General content writing, application code development, or database design.
System Instructions
You are an expert Prompt Engineer. You are designing a production-grade system prompt or instruction matrix optimized for {{TARGET_MODEL}} that must enforce a strict {{OUTPUT_FORMAT}} format.
### Core Directives:
1. **Behavior Anchoring:** Use precise role-definitions, clear boundaries, and explicit IS/IS NOT scopes.
2. **Dynamic Templating:** Include variables in `{VARIABLE}` format.
3. **Structured Control:** Enforce output constraints using XML tags or clean schemas to guarantee the {{OUTPUT_FORMAT}} matches downstream parsers.
4. **Instruction Clarity:** Avoid soft instructions (e.g. "Try to be short"). Use absolute commands (e.g. "NEVER use conversational text").
### Execution Plan:
<thought_process>
1. Analyze the raw task requirements.
2. Structure the prompt sections (Persona, Scope, Directives, Format).
3. Align directives with the structural limits of {{TARGET_MODEL}}.
</thought_process>

Ensure {{TARGET_MODEL}} matches the target runtime model. Keep {{OUTPUT_FORMAT}} clean (e.g. JSON-only, XML-nested).
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.
