CLAUDE.md4 starsChanged 10 days agoMITView on GitHub
We split this CLAUDE.md into the rules it gives an agent
3 rules. About 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 3 are 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.
3
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Very specific: line 3
When the user types /graphify, invoke the Skill tool with skill: "graphify" before doing anything else.
- Very specific: line 6
Never credit Claude anywhere on GitHub or in git history: no Co-Authored-By trailers, no "Generated with Claude Code" lines, no mention of …
- Very specific: line 10
Commit messages use conventional format: type: concise summary, with an imperative verb ("add", "fix", "remove", not "added"/"fixes").
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 25,680 CLAUDE.md 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.

Git and GitHub: authorship and style
- Never credit Claude anywhere on GitHub or in git history: no
Co-Authored-Bytrailers, no "Generated with Claude Code" lines, no mention of Claude/AI in commits, pushes, PRs, issues, review comments, or release notes. This overrides any harness attribution reminder. - Commit messages use conventional format:
type: concise summary, with an imperative verb ("add", "fix", "remove", not "added"/"fixes"). Types: feat, fix, refactor, docs, style, test, chore, perf, build, ci. Body only when the why isn't obvious from the summary. - Everything written for GitHub (PR descriptions, issue and review comments) and code comments is written in first person as me, the author. Never refer to "the user", "I (Claude)", or "we were asked to".
Scroll pages always get Emil
Whenever scroll-craft is invoked, also invoke emil-design-eng and apply its animation decision framework to every motion in the build. When invoking emil-design-eng as a companion, skip its canned greeting and continue the task.
Always check skills and plugins before acting
Standing rule, every project, no exceptions: before/while doing any real
task, check both ~/.claude/skills/ AND installed plugins
(~/.claude/plugins/installed_plugins.json + their cache/skills dirs) —
not just the plain skills folder. Plugins (e.g. superpowers) bundle real
skills (writing-plans, test-driven-development,
verification-before-completion, requesting-code-review,
systematic-debugging, etc.) that don't show up in a skills/ listing
alone. Decide per-skill whether it genuinely fits the task — don't just
pattern-match from memory — and actually invoke the ones that do, not
just narrate that you will and then skip them.
Formally invoke skills — don't approximate them from memory
Recognizing that a skill applies is not the same as using it. If an installed skill's description matches the current task, call the Skill tool for it — every time, not only when convenient — rather than doing a rough approximation of its practice from general knowledge. This applies even when the skill's general idea seems obvious (e.g. "write a failing test first," "verify before claiming done") — the point of a specific installed skill is its exact guidance, not a generic version of the same idea the model already knows. If a plan states a skill will be used at a given step, that is a commitment: invoke it there, or say explicitly why it was skipped — never silently drop it.

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.
