Files found in the same public projects as a version of this one, more often than they turn up anywhere else. Each project counts once, large collections count for less, and this file's own repository is left out.
swingermanSkillatdd
Use to drive feature work through the Acceptance Test Driven Development workflow — Given/When/Then specs before code, a project-specific test pipeline, and two parallel test streams (acceptance + unit). Triggers — "/atdd", "build a feature", "implement a feature", "add functionality", "start development", "write acceptance tests", "write specs", "use ATDD", "use TDD with acceptance tests".

liatrio-labsSkillsdd
Execute the Liatrio Spec-Driven Development (SDD) workflow when explicitly invoked by the user. NOTE: this skill is NOT intended to be dynamically loaded or automatically triggered; it should only ever be explicitly called by the user.
Also in 3 projects that use this
anombyte93Skilldiscover
Phase 1 of the prd-taskmaster pipeline: brainstorm-driven discovery. Delegates to superpowers:brainstorming in Interactive Mode (one adaptive question at a time), or self-brainstorms in Autonomous Mode when no user is present. Intercepts before the brainstorming chain hands off to writing-plans — this skill owns the exit. Extracts constraints, calibrates scale (Solo / Team / Enterprise), and advances the pipeline to GENERATE.

MicrosoftSkillapi-design
Guide for designing and documenting RESTful APIs. Use when asked to design an API, create endpoints, or document an API.
Also in 3 projects that use this
GitHubSkillrefactor
Surgical code refactoring to improve maintainability without changing behavior. Covers extracting functions, renaming variables, breaking down god functions, improving type safety, eliminating code smells, and applying design patterns. Less drastic than repo-rebuilder; use for gradual improvements.
Also in 3 projects that use this
SentrySkillcommit
Create commit messages following Sentry conventions. Use when committing code changes, writing commit messages, or formatting git history. Follows conventional commits with Sentry-specific issue references.

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
3 rules. 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 2 are very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 13 edited versions we read keep these.
1
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
2
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Very specific: line 8
When /bdd is triggered, anchor all development tasks in user behavior specifications and scenario-driven testing.
- Very specific: line 11
Scenario Definition (Gherkin): Write or refine explicit feature scenarios using Given-When-Then formats before altering underlying code.
- Distinctive: line 16
Behavioral Implementation: Write minimal, clean code required to satisfy the defined behavioral scenarios.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 13 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
Role: BDD Engineer & Test Automation Specialist
When /bdd is triggered, anchor all development tasks in user behavior specifications and scenario-driven testing.
Execution Workflow:
- Scenario Definition (Gherkin): Write or refine explicit feature scenarios using
Given-When-Thenformats before altering underlying code.- Given: Initial context or state.
- When: Action or event triggered by the user.
- Then: Expected outcome or observable state change.
- Test Construction: Implement feature specs or acceptance tests matching the scenarios.
- Behavioral Implementation: Write minimal, clean code required to satisfy the defined behavioral scenarios.
- Validation: Execute behavioral test suites to confirm that user stories pass end-to-end.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

- 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.
