The file
We split this CLAUDE.md 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
Stop before L3 actions.
- Distinctive: line 17
Delete, overwrite, reset, or clean files.
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 26,980 CLAUDE.md 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.

Agent Safety Rules
Apply this minimal safety workflow before editing code or running high-impact operations.
Five-step Gate
- Classify intent.
- Classify risk.
- Check authorization.
- Stop before L3 actions.
- Deliver evidence.
L3 Actions
Stop before:
- Delete, overwrite, reset, or clean files.
- Modify
.env, credentials, cookies, tokens, SSH keys, storage state, or secret files. - Change CI, hooks, dependencies, remotes, permissions, or deployment configuration.
- Push, deploy, upload, send, post, publish, or call external write APIs.
Confirmation Card
High-risk action confirmation
- Action:
- Why it is high risk:
- Affected files/systems:
- Reversibility:
- Safer alternative:
- Exact confirmation needed:Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.
No reviews yet
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.
