The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
2 rules. About 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈2
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 8
Use this skill when you want proactive behavior, but not a full always-on autonomous platform.
- Distinctive: line 25
Create a portable proactive job spec:
≈ “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.

Kairos Lite
Use this skill when you want proactive behavior, but not a full always-on autonomous platform.
Use It For
- scheduled repo patrols
- unattended follow-up checks
- short user-facing briefs after background work
- proactive jobs with expiry
Avoid It For
- unrestricted permanent daemons
- hidden background mutation without explicit user opt-in
- complex host-specific notification plumbing as an MVP
Quick Start
Create a portable proactive job spec:
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/job_spec.py \
--name "daily-repo-check" \
--prompt "Summarize risky changes in the repo" \
--schedule "0 9 * * 1-5"Then use the prompt in references/prompt-template.md.
Minimum Building Blocks
- sleep or wait
- a schedule or automation trigger
- a brief output channel
- expiry or renewal
Supporting Files
- Prompt template: references/prompt-template.md
- Source notes: references/source-notes.md
- Helper script:

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.
