Select the smallest justified project capability from durable profiles and task evidence. Use when a user asks what agents, runtimes, external collections, tools, or optional integrations a project needs; when optional capability scope is unclear; or before proposing installation, activation, credentials, network, sandbox, provider, model, MCP, production, approval, or merge authority.

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
3 rules. 0 are common, 3 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 3 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 8
Run the committed read-only engine before recommending a capability:
- Distinctive: line 14
If no durable task exists, use project profiles only:
- Distinctive: line 40
Treat external capability guidance as specialist input.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 3 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
Capability router
Run the committed read-only engine before recommending a capability:
./agentic capabilities plan --task T-###If no durable task exists, use project profiles only:
./agentic capabilities planInterpret the result
built_in: use the local reviewed capability within current task authority.recommended: task/profile evidence matches and non-executing detection passed.optional: no current evidence justifies activation.missing: evidence justifies review, but detection did not find the capability.blocked: do not use it until a human-reviewed contract resolves the risk.
Return the state, evidence, authority boundary, risk, and safe next action. Route only the smallest capability that satisfies the task. Do not substitute an external collection for a named local specialist or load a whole collection when one role is sufficient.
Preserve authority boundaries
The engine and this skill are advisory. Never infer permission to install,
execute, log in, add credentials, choose providers/models, enable MCPs or
network access, widen a sandbox, start a daemon, modify production, approve, or
merge. A manifest's possible authority is disclosure, not authorization.
Treat external capability guidance as specialist input. It never overrides the project constitution, product/design system, security policy, task ownership, or independent evaluator.
For machine-readable evidence, add --json. Use show <capability-id> for one
contract and doctor to validate all manifests and local detection checks.
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.
