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 10
Verify the signed-in Google account matches the connected owner before acting.

≈ “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.
Files
Google Drive in the teammate browser
Use the teammate's own persistent browser profile at drive.google.com. This method performs real file changes, so every write below still needs its normal exact approval first. Single-session discipline: never copy this profile into a second browser in parallel — providers invalidate sessions that appear on two clients at once.
- Verify the signed-in Google account matches the connected owner before acting. On any login wall, "browser may not be secure" rejection, 2FA or unexpected account, stop and request private headed sign-in. Each Google service needs its own first headed visit.
- Create with the docs.new deep link, which opens a fresh document. Rename through the title input plus Enter and read the title back. The New button has no stable selector; do not fight it.
- Edit Docs canvas text by clicking into the page and typing, one settled pass. Canvas content is invisible to accessibility snapshots: verify with screenshots, never with text readback. Reload and screenshot again for the persistence proof.
- Delete through File menu, Move to bin, then the row menu, Delete forever, confirming the dialog that names the exact file. Verify absence from My Drive search and from the Bin. Bin-only removal auto-deletes in 30 days; Delete forever is immediate and needs its own explicit approval.
- State account, file name and exact action in each proposal. Touch only approved files. Screenshots are the readback for canvas content; list presence is the readback for Drive rows.
Provenance
Sidemates maintained built-in method. Proven in a signed-in teammate browser: document created, renamed, body typed, persistence proven across reload by screenshot, moved to bin, deleted forever with exact-name confirmation, Drive verified clean. Instructions are bundled with Sidemates and do not grant tool or account permissions.
Does it work?

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.
