The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

5 rules. 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 5 are very specific to this project.

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 62 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 0

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 5

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Very specific:

    Use a descriptive filename: setup-<thing>.sh or setup-<thing>.md

    line 17
  2. Very specific:

    Use #!/usr/bin/env bash and set -e for scripts

    line 20
  3. Very specific:

    Add # --- Section Name --- comments to group steps

    line 21
  4. Very specific:

    Should this be added to ~/.dotfiles?

    line 26
  5. Very specific:

    If the user says yes, make the change and remind them to run cloud-upload to commit and push

    line 32

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 62 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.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Bootstrap

Workflow

  1. Review context — read the current conversation to extract:
    • What was installed (packages, tools, configs)
    • What commands were run (in order)
    • Any config files created or modified
    • Environment variables or secrets needed
  2. Draft the bootstrap — write a file to the current working directory:
    • Use a descriptive filename: setup-<thing>.sh or setup-<thing>.md
    • Shell script if the steps are fully automatable
    • Markdown guide if manual steps, decisions, or credentials are involved
    • Use #!/usr/bin/env bash and set -e for scripts
    • Add # --- Section Name --- comments to group steps
    • Annotate non-obvious commands with inline comments
    • Note any secrets/env vars needed but don't hardcode values
  3. Ask about dotfiles integration — after writing the file, ask the user:
    • Should this be added to ~/.dotfiles?
    • Based on what it is, suggest the right place:
      • Reusable utility script → ~/.dotfiles/bin/
      • One-off install script → ~/.dotfiles/post-install-scriptlets/
      • Config file → run dotfile-add <file>
      • New package → append to ~/.dotfiles/packages/dnf-packages.txt or flatpak-apps.txt
    • If the user says yes, make the change and remind them to run cloud-upload to commit and push
