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
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 9
Use before requesting bids, comparing finalists or replacing a critical supplier.
- Distinctive: line 23
Test the recommendation with sensitivity and pre-mortem analysis.
≈ “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.

When to use it
Use before requesting bids, comparing finalists or replacing a critical supplier.
What Claude needs
- Background from client-context.md
- Business need, scope and required outcomes
- Mandatory requirements and operational constraints
- Candidate information, references and transition considerations
Method
- Separate mandatory gates from weighted evaluation criteria.
- Translate needs into testable requirements and evidence requests.
- Weight criteria across capability, service, resilience, fit and total cost.
- Score candidates consistently and document evidence and uncertainty.
- Conduct reference, dependency and implementation-risk checks.
- Test the recommendation with sensitivity and pre-mortem analysis.
Output format
Provide requirements, gating results, weighted scorecard, risk comparison, recommendation and negotiation points.
Quality checks
- Criteria were set before candidate scoring.
- Scores cite comparable evidence.
- The recommendation remains sound under plausible weighting changes.

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.
