DALI_extra is a data-only repository containing sample datasets used by NVIDIA DALI's test suite. It has no build system or runnable code. Large binary files (.mp4, .avi, .mkv, .tar, LMDB files, TFRecord files, etc.) are stored via Git LFS. Git LFS must be installed before cloning or the large files will be stubs.

The file
We split this CLAUDE.md into the rules it gives an agent
4 rules. About 0 are common, 3 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈3
Distinctive · estimate
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 27
Before adding new files:
- Distinctive: line 28
Verify no existing dataset can be used instead.
- Distinctive: line 29
Ensure data contains no personal information (no identifiable faces, license plates), no prominent trademarks, and no inappropriate content.
- Very specific: line 34
All datasets live under db/.
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 26,980 CLAUDE.md 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.

Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

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.
