ShreyRaviSkillplan-tune
Self-tuning question sensitivity + developer psychographic for gstack (v1: observational). Review which AskUserQuestion prompts fire across gstack skills, set per-question preferences (never-ask / always-ask / ask-only-for-one-way), inspect the dual-track profile (what you declared vs what your behavior suggests), and enable/disable question tuning. Conversational interface — no CLI syntax required.

seek888Skillopen-gstack-browser
Launch GStack Browser — AI-controlled Chromium with the sidebar extension baked in. Opens a visible browser window where you can watch every action in real time. The sidebar shows a live activity feed and chat. Anti-bot stealth built in. Use when asked to "open gstack browser", "launch browser", "connect chrome", "open chrome", "real browser", "launch chrome", "side panel", or "control my browser". Voice triggers (speech-to-text aliases): "show me the browser".

ayudaySkillsetup-deploy
Configure deployment settings for /land-and-deploy. Detects your deploy platform (Fly.io, Render, Vercel, Netlify, Heroku, GitHub Actions, custom), production URL, health check endpoints, and deploy status commands. Writes the configuration to CLAUDE.md so all future deploys are automatic. Use when: "setup deploy", "configure deployment", "set up land-and-deploy", "how do I deploy with gstack", "add deploy config".

seek888Skillpair-agent
Pair a remote AI agent with your browser. One command generates a setup key and prints instructions the other agent can follow to connect. Works with OpenClaw, Hermes, Codex, Cursor, or any agent that can make HTTP requests. The remote agent gets its own tab with scoped access (read+write by default, admin on request). Use when asked to "pair agent", "connect agent", "share browser", "remote browser", "let another agent use my browser", or "give browser access". (gstack) Voice triggers (speech-to-text aliases): "pair agent", "connect agent", "share my browser", "remote browser access".

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.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
6 rules. 0 are common, 6 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 37 edited versions we read keep these.
6
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 19
When the user says "freeze to [directory]" or when investigate auto-locks scope:
- Distinctive: line 22
Before every file edit, check if the target file is within the allowed directory
- Distinctive: line 23
If outside: block the edit and explain why
- Distinctive: line 56
Focused refactoring: Only touch the files you're refactoring
- Distinctive: line 57
Code review fixes: Only modify files in the PR
- Distinctive: line 59
Use unfreeze to remove the restriction.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 37 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.
Files
Freeze — Scope Lock
Restrict all file edits to a single directory. Prevents accidental changes to unrelated code while debugging or making focused changes.
Related skills: unfreeze | guard | careful | investigate
Activation
When the user says "freeze to [directory]" or when investigate auto-locks scope:
- Record the allowed directory
- Before every file edit, check if the target file is within the allowed directory
- If outside: block the edit and explain why
Behavior
🔒 FREEZE ACTIVE: edits restricted to src/auth/
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━Allowed
- Any file under the frozen directory
- Reading files anywhere (read-only is always allowed)
Blocked
- Editing files outside the frozen directory
- Creating new files outside the frozen directory
When Blocked
⛔ EDIT BLOCKED: src/api/handler.ts is outside the freeze boundary (src/auth/)
Run /unfreeze to remove the restriction, or explain why this file needs to change.Use Cases
- Debugging: Lock to the buggy module to prevent scope creep
- Focused refactoring: Only touch the files you're refactoring
- Code review fixes: Only modify files in the PR
Use unfreeze to remove the restriction.
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.
