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
5 rules. 0 are common, 4 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 14 edited versions we read keep these.
4
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
1
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 8
Use this skill for CS poster workflows.
- Distinctive: line 29
Do not paste paragraph-heavy paper text into a poster.
- Distinctive: line 33
Use the existing templates when they help:
- Very specific: line 45
If a shell review is useful, use scripts/review_poster.sh.
- Distinctive: line 58
When the user asks for poster help without specifying format, return:
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 14 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.
Files
LaTeX Posters
Use this skill for CS poster workflows. Optimize for architecture diagrams, benchmark highlights, readable tables, and fast comprehension in a noisy conference setting.
Poster Types
Handle cases such as:
- conference poster based on a paper submission
- lab or department poster for ongoing work
- thesis or defense poster
- demo poster for systems, agents, or tools
- recruitment or project-overview poster for a research group
Content Strategy
A strong CS poster usually prioritizes:
- problem and why it matters
- core method or system architecture
- benchmark setup or experimental protocol
- 1 to 3 key result panels
- limitations or deployment considerations
- QR code or repo / paper link
Do not paste paragraph-heavy paper text into a poster. Compress aggressively.
Local Assets
Use the existing templates when they help:
assets/beamerposter_template.texassets/tikzposter_template.texassets/baposter_template.texassets/poster_quality_checklist.md
Read references selectively:
references/poster_content_guide.mdreferences/poster_design_principles.mdreferences/poster_layout_design.mdreferences/latex_poster_packages.md
If a shell review is useful, use scripts/review_poster.sh.
CS-Specific Review Checklist
Check that:
- the title states the technical problem clearly
- the method or system diagram is legible from distance
- result panels show the main comparison immediately
- figure captions carry the takeaway, not just labels
- code, dataset, or paper links are easy to find
Default Output
When the user asks for poster help without specifying format, return:
- a poster outline
- a template recommendation
- section-level content priorities
- layout and readability risks
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.
