The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
6 rules. About 0 are common, 5 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈5
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” 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.

Contribute A New API Surface
Companion Guidance
Use karpathy-guidelines alongside this skill for implementation or review
work. Keep changes scoped, surface assumptions, and define focused validation
before editing.
Use this skill when contributing a public API addition or behavior change to the runtime or bindings.
Default Guidance
- Start from the shared Rust core behavior first
- Decide whether the CLI, PyO3 binding, Python SDK, type stubs, schemas, or the Python and TypeScript adapter-contract bindings must expose the new surface
- Keep every affected public surface in parity
RunRequest.relay_session_rootis forwarded as the typedAgentRunRequest.relay_session_rootfield. Keep Rust, Python, TypeScript, and schema representations in parity. Context keys do not control Relay propagation; preserve the adapter fallback for unusable UUIDs.- OpenShell task commands serialize public SDK config/request/handle/result mappings. Keep forwarding buffered and preserve task-generated IDs, normalized failed results, telemetry references, and declared artifacts. Do not normalize an SDK result as an adapter result. Task paths remain POSIX strings; host artifact destinations stay separate. Unknown outcomes bind the immutable sandbox identity through reattachment and must not be replayed.
- Update docs and examples in the same branch
Minimum Acceptance
- Public behavior is clearly described
- Every affected public surface is covered
- The validation matrix matches the changed surfaces
- PR notes explain the user-facing change

validate-changereview-doc-styledocs/python-sdk-contract.mdschemas/SCHEMA.mdjustfile- Software provenance uses
FabricConfig.provenanceand optionalRunResult.execution. Keep Rust, shared Python evidence dataclasses innemo-fabric-evidence, SDK result mappings, generated TypeScript types and the canonicalschemas/evidence/execution-evidence.schema.jsonaligned. The shared schema is generated from Rust and consumed by both NB and SB bindings; keep the TypeScript adapter-contract schema copy byte-identical. Preserve strict adapter result shapes: lifecycle evidence is carried beside the outcome. Optional report failure must not replace invocation outcomes.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

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.
