The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
6 rules. About 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 4 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈2
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
4
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

When writing Node.js backend logic, prioritize non-blocking IO and robust error handling:
- Very specific: line 13
Event Loop: Never write synchronous, CPU-intensive code (JSON.parse on massive objects, sync file reads) in the main request path.
- Very specific: line 14
Async/Await: Use async/await over raw Promises or callbacks.
- Distinctive: line 15
Error Handling: Do not swallow errors. Handle uncaught exceptions and unhandled promise rejections gracefully, logging them and exiting if …
- Distinctive: line 16
Streams: When dealing with large files or network responses, use Streams instead of buffering the entire payload into memory.
- Very specific: line 17
Security: Avoid eval(), sanitize inputs before passing them to exec() or spawn(), and never expose raw stack traces to the client.
≈ “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.

Node.js Best Practices
Apply this skill after inspecting repository conventions and supported versions. Treat its rules as defaults unless they protect a concrete safety property; preserve an established project pattern when it conflicts, and record the reason in the implementation plan.
When writing Node.js backend logic, prioritize non-blocking IO and robust error handling:
- Event Loop: Never write synchronous, CPU-intensive code (
JSON.parseon massive objects, sync file reads) in the main request path. It blocks the event loop. - Async/Await: Use
async/awaitover raw Promises or callbacks. Ensure all Promises are awaited or have.catch()attached. - Error Handling: Do not swallow errors. Handle uncaught exceptions and unhandled promise rejections gracefully, logging them and exiting if the state is unrecoverable.
- Streams: When dealing with large files or network responses, use Streams instead of buffering the entire payload into memory.
- Security: Avoid
eval(), sanitize inputs before passing them toexec()orspawn(), and never expose raw stack traces to the client.

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.
