The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
7 rules. About 0 are common, 4 are distinctive, and 3 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈4
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
- Distinctive: line 8
Create the project scaffold for a Bayes Ship product delivery pipeline.
- Very specific: line 12
Create .claude/state/ directory if it does not exist.
- Distinctive: line 13
Ask the user for:
- Very specific: line 19
Write .claude/state/PROJECT.md with all captured information.
- Distinctive: line 36
Do NOT start any implementation, brainstorming, or research.
- Distinctive: line 37
Keep it fast. This should take under 1 minute.
- Very specific: line 38
If the project directory already has a .claude/state/PROJECT.md, warn the user and ask if they want to overwrite.
≈ “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.
Files
Initialize new product
Create the project scaffold for a Bayes Ship product delivery pipeline.
Process
- Create
.claude/state/directory if it does not exist. - Ask the user for:
- Project name (short, lowercase, kebab-case, used for git branches and directories)
- One-line description (what does this product do, in plain language)
- Target users: A. Businesses (B2B) / B. Consumers (B2C) / C. Internal team tool / D. Other
- Primary platform: A. Web app / B. Mobile app / C. API/backend service / D. Desktop app
- Scan installed skills and flag which are relevant to this project based on the description and platform.
- Write
.claude/state/PROJECT.mdwith all captured information. - Initialize
.claude/state/progress.json:
{
"project": "<project-name>",
"current_phase": "setup",
"phases": {},
"last_checkpoint": "<timestamp>",
"git_commits": 0
}- Output: "Ready. Run
/bayes-ship:ship-discoverto start requirements gathering."
Rules
- Do NOT start any implementation, brainstorming, or research. Only capture project basics.
- Keep it fast. This should take under 1 minute.
- If the project directory already has a
.claude/state/PROJECT.md, warn the user and ask if they want to overwrite.
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.
