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
4 rules. About 0 are common, 4 are distinctive, and 0 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.
0
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 235
Add tips based on common patterns
- Distinctive: line 244
Clear: - No jargon without explanation
- Distinctive: line 247
Concise: - No unnecessary padding
- Distinctive: line 252
When generating examples beyond those in the source:
≈ “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
Generate Agent Documentation
Creates user-friendly documentation for AI coding assistant customization files.
Host-specific packaging
This is a repository maintenance skill, excluded from the WoW plugin. Maintain canonical WoW skills under skills and generate the package with npm run build. Agent metadata, rules, commands, and discovery paths differ by host; do not copy Copilot conventions into Codex or Claude mechanically. See file locations. Examples using <provider>/ below describe Copilot-style source files and must be adapted using host specifications.
When to Use
- Onboarding new team members to your agent ecosystem
- Creating a catalog of available agents and skills
- Generating usage examples for specific agents
- Documenting your customization setup for reference
Documentation Types

## Detailed Documentation
[Full documentation for each item]
## Usage Guidelines
[General guidance on how to use these customizations effectively]Generation Process
Step 1: Read Source File
Load the agent/skill/prompt/instruction file.
Step 2: Extract Key Information
- Name and description from frontmatter
- Behaviors and rules from body
- Examples if present
- Related items (skills, handoffs)
Step 3: Enhance with Context
- Generate additional examples based on purpose
- Identify related items from the ecosystem
- Add tips based on common patterns
Step 4: Format Output
Apply appropriate template based on item type.
Quality Guidelines
Generated documentation should be:
- Clear - No jargon without explanation
- Practical - Real, actionable examples
- Complete - Covers all key aspects
- Concise - No unnecessary padding
- Current - Reflects actual file contents
Additional Examples
When generating examples beyond those in the source:
- Cover different use case variations
- Show edge cases and how they're handled
- Demonstrate integration with other items
- Illustrate common mistakes to avoid
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.
