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
6 rules. About 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 6 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.
6
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

Never edit .claude/settings.local.json yourself, and never apply without being asked: the deny list is the developer's file.
≈ “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
/eklavya:toolprune
Every tool a session loads costs context on every request, used or not. Eklavya keeps, per repository, how many prompts and sessions have passed since each loaded tool was last used, and proposes the ones that went unused. It writes nothing until the developer says so.
- Run
eklavya toolprune listwith Bash and show what it printed: each proposed tool with its evidence, and any tools Eklavya already denied. - If the developer passed
apply(all of them) or named tools, runeklavya toolprune apply [tool...]. Say that the change takes effect from the next session, and thateklavya toolprune restoreundoes it. - If they passed
restore, runeklavya toolprune restore [tool...]. Say that restored tools are not proposed again. - If they asked what it saves, run
eklavya toolprune measureand repeat its two lines as written: it counts listing lines of deferred tools only, and says it does not measure full definitions.
Never edit .claude/settings.local.json yourself, and never apply without being
asked: the deny list is the developer's file. eklavya toolprune apply refuses
when economy.toolprune is off, when the file is not valid JSON, or when
.claude leads out of the repository through a symlink; report its reason as
written. Built-in tools Claude Code needs to work (Bash, Read, Edit, Write, the
search and web tools, Agent, Skill, ToolSearch, AskUserQuestion) and every
Eklavya tool are never proposed.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.
- It worked
- Partly
- It didn't
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.
