Extract reusable workflows from a session and turn them into new skills. Use when: "save this as a skill", "extract a workflow from this", or after a session produced a non-obvious repeatable lesson.

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 9 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 26
Do not create a skill for a one-off event.
- Distinctive: line 36
when this should be used again
- Distinctive: line 42
If an existing skill covers it, update that skill instead of creating a duplicate.
- Distinctive: line 80
when it should be used
- Distinctive: line 86
If the lesson will probably matter again, capture it.
- Distinctive: line 88
If not, leave it in the session log instead.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 9 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.

Purpose
Turn repeated learning into reusable instructions.
When To Extract A Skill
Extract a skill when the session produced:
- a non-obvious fix
- a repeatable workflow
- a reliable checklist
- a project pattern worth preserving
Do not create a skill for a one-off event.
Process
Step 1: Identify The Lesson
Write down:
- what happened
- what was non-obvious
- when this should be used again
Step 2: Check If It Already Exists
Look through skills/.
If an existing skill covers it, update that skill instead of creating a duplicate.
Step 3: Create Or Update The Skill
Project-level skills should live here:
skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md
Optional tool-specific mirrors can be added later, but the canonical version should stay in this repo.
Step 4: Use This Structure

Tell the user:

- what problem it now solves
- when it should be used
Rule
If the lesson will probably matter again, capture it.
If not, leave it in the session log instead.
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.
