Agent Toolkit is the public source for the reusable Skills listed in PUBLIC_SKILLS.txt, together with the small repository checks that keep that source standalone and auditable. A consumer loads Skill directories directly from this checkout or a source link; the repository does not generate a copied consumer tree, install a runtime adapter, or store deployment configuration.

Where files are headingNew AGENTS.md files have more rules about keeping secrets out of the code, and fewer about code style.
Of the AGENTS.md files we read, the 31,774 first seen in the last six months, against the older ones: the kind of rule that gained most share, and the kind that lost most. About files like this in general, not this one, and an estimate, since a kind is a pattern in the words.

The file
We split this AGENTS.md into the rules it gives an agent
1 rule. About 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.

Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

This author's own choices. Worth a look.

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 40,246 AGENTS.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.

Agent Toolkit
Agent Toolkit is the public source for the reusable Skills listed in PUBLIC_SKILLS.txt, together with the small repository checks that keep that source standalone and auditable. A consumer loads Skill directories directly from this checkout or a source link; the repository does not generate a copied consumer tree, install a runtime adapter, or store deployment configuration.
Repository responsibilities
skills/contains the maintained public Skills and their self-contained scripts, references, assets, and tests.PUBLIC_SKILLS.txtis the public membership allowlist;skills/README.mdis the human-readable catalog and must contain the same local Skills exactly once.bin/contains only public repository checks and their Bun tests. Domain and application-specific Skill implementations remain under their owning Skill directory.docs/specs/,docs/adr/,GLOSSARY.md,README.md, andCONTRIBUTING.mddescribe public contracts and maintenance boundaries..github/workflows/validates the public source on Linux and macOS. A workflow passing is not a production deployment or a publication approval.
The repository owns reusable source and validation contracts. Operators own credentials, real inventory, deployment addresses, host configuration, and consumer-specific integrations. Keep those values outside this repository.
Local validation
Use the Bun installed on the host; this repository does not select or download an exact Bun or Node.js version.
bun install --frozen-lockfile
bun --version
bun run typecheck
bun run check
bun run test:repo
python3 -m pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
ruby -e 'require "yaml"'
bun run test:skillstest:repo discovers repository-owned Bun, Python, and Shell test files outside skills/. test:skills discovers those same test families below skills/. The runner rejects empty or non-declarative Bun/Python test files before execution; Shell tests must execute at least one counted test builtin in the suite shell or a sourced helper and report TESTS_RUN=<count>. Assertions confined to a separate helper process do not contribute to the count; assert that helper's result in the suite shell. See validation prerequisites for supported runner platforms, native commands, and Bun FFI requirements. Python dependencies needed by application-facing or domain tests are declared separately in requirements-dev.txt; the XP policy test also requires Ruby with its standard YAML library; text-only Skills need no programming runtime.
The source-target inventory check is an opt-in migration check because it compares a synthetic or explicitly supplied Git source snapshot:
bun run bin/source_target_inventory_check.ts --source-root /path/to/source --source-revision HEADIt is not required for ordinary standalone checkout validation.
Public boundaries
bun run check includes the foundation consistency gate: membership, catalog, language allocation, Spec/implementation coverage, requirement/scenario identities, and local/CI validation wiring must agree. Record migration targets separately from completed behavior evidence; root validation does not prove domain migration, deployment, or remote required-check enforcement.
Use direct repository-relative links and neutral placeholders in public content. Do not add credentials, real hostnames, personal filesystem paths, private runtime/task integration, copied consumer Skills, or resident synchronization services. Python, C, and POSIX Shell remain allowed only where the public language matrix records a concrete application, native-rendering, or remote-observation boundary.
Skill-owned scripts must resolve bundled modules, assets, and sibling helpers from their own source location rather than the caller's current working directory. Skill examples run from the Skill directory with relative scripts/... paths; user inputs, outputs, operator configuration, and remote system paths remain explicit external values.
Changes to a CLI, protocol, lifecycle rule, durable state, or configuration schema must update its public contract and behavior tests in the same change. Keep one active implementation per executable responsibility and remove a replaced public check rather than leaving two entrypoints active.
Contract anchors
- The CVM image fallback keeps its Python module-integration boundary in
skills/cvm-imagegen/SKILL.md,skills/cvm-imagegen/references/cli.md, andskills/cvm-imagegen/scripts/test_image_gen.py. The configured module and endpoint are explicit prerequisites; the public wrapper does not create a second API client. - XP policy and read-only audit behavior are defined by
skills/xp-infra/SKILL.md,skills/xp-infra/references/runbook.md, andskills/xp-infra/tests/test-xp-infra.sh. Live aliases, addresses, credentials, and exception records remain operator-owned.

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.
