Use when writing or editing any prose the user will read or publish - blog posts, essays, READMEs, docs, code comments, docstrings, commit bodies, PR and MR descriptions, app store listings, replies. Catalogues the two things that mark text as AI-written: the sentence, tone and formatting patterns (the whole contrastive family - negative parallelism "it's not X, it's Y", preferential contrast "Y rather than X", tailing negation "..., not Y" - em dashes as pauses, punchy fragments, bold-first bullets, title case headings, signposted conclusions, "it's worth noting", "serves as", promotional adjectives) and the vocabulary (plainly, quietly, genuinely, nobody, deliberately, indistinguishable, load-bearing, asymmetry, premise, and objects given human verbs - X carries Y, X buys Y, X asserts Y, X refuses to). Ships a scanner. Use it whenever the user asks to clean up, tighten, de-slop or de-AI writing, and before drafting documentation, a commit message or a PR description.

    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.

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.
