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
5 rules. About 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 5 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈0
Distinctive · estimate
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
- Very specific: line 8
Use these rules in addition to the main computer-use skill:
- Very specific: line 10
Always call get_app_state app="Numbers" before interacting.
- Very specific: line 13
Use Tab / shift+Tab / Return / shift+Return to move between cells — never embed those as literal characters in type_text.
- Very specific: line 15
Prefer set_value on Format-inspector numeric inputs (settable=true).
- Very specific: line 18
Always re-call get_app_state after switching sheets — the entire tree changes.
≈ “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.

Driving Apple Numbers with background computer use
Use these rules in addition to the main computer-use skill:
- Always call
get_app_state app="Numbers"before interacting. - A single
clickselects a cell; double-click orpress_key key="Return"enters edit mode. Triple-click selects the cell's existing value. - Use
Tab/shift+Tab/Return/shift+Returnto move between cells — never embed those as literal characters intype_text. - Prefer
set_valueon Format-inspector numeric inputs (settable=true). - For multi-cell selection, use
dragfrom the top-left cell to the bottom-right cell. - Always re-call
get_app_stateafter switching sheets — the entire tree changes.
Detailed behavior lives in server/app-hints/Numbers.md, which is injected
into <app_hints> on every get_app_state call for Numbers.

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.
