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
Files
This skill lets a coding agent operate Adobe Illustrator on the desktop through Flue, a local shell-to-application bridge. The agent pipes ExtendScript into illustrator_bridge.py and gets structured JSON back.
agent shell ->
illustrator_bridge.py-> ExtendScript -> JSON result
When to use
The human requests work performed inside Illustrator — inspect the open document, artboards, layers, paths, selection; make bounded edits; run small ExtendScript steps. A CLI agent cannot act inside Illustrator without a bridge like Flue.
How to proceed
- Read
FLUE.mdin this directory first. It explains how Flue works, the bridge contract, a worked ExtendScript example, and safety expectations. - If Flue is installed: also read
C:\Users\fredd\.claude\skills\flue\SKILL.mdandadapters/illustrator_adapter/APP.mdfor the operational contract, then work from there. - If Flue is not installed: tell the human. The install command is
pip install flue && flue setup. Do not install without explicit approval in the current session.
Other apps
Flue also supports Photoshop, Premiere, After Effects, InDesign, Audition, Blender, Houdini, 3ds Max, Unity, and Microsoft Office through the same stdin/stdout contract. One install covers all adapters.
Safety
Flue acts inside professional desktop software. Treat the human as the driver; prefer small, inspectable steps; avoid destructive actions unless explicitly requested. Flue is MIT-licensed and reviewable on GitHub / PyPI before use.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

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.
