Find real people who have already done the thing the user wants to do, then design a focused interview to extract what they wish they'd known. Mirrors how Tim Ferriss researched The 4-Hour Workweek itself — by talking to dozens of authors, athletes, entrepreneurs, and outliers to find the patterns hidden behind the public story. Use when the user says "I don't know how to start," "I wish I knew someone who'd done this," "find me people who," "who has done X," "I need to learn from someone real," "I want a mentor," or any time the answer is buried in someone's experience rather than in research. Builds a target list of 5-15 people, ranks them by reach difficulty, and produces an interview agenda. Pairs with /cold-outreach for the actual asking.

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
7 rules. About 0 are common, 6 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈6
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
1
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
The licence could not be identified — read it at the source. We count its rules but don't quote them. Read them on GitHub.
≈ “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.

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.
