The file
We split this CLAUDE.md into the rules it gives an agent
2 rules. About 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 2 are very specific to this project.
≈0

Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
2
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

When to run the Assumptions skill
Before committing changes to application code, migrations, authentication, payments, queues, webhooks, or configuration, run the Assumptions skill against the staged diff first:
Use Assumptions to review the current diff.This is guidance, not an enforced gate — nothing here blocks a commit. It exists so the review happens by default instead of only when asked.
Skip it for docs-only, comment-only, or formatting-only changes.
Optional: local pre-commit reminder
scripts/assumptions-precommit is an opt-in script that reminds you to
run Assumptions before a commit if you haven't recently. It is not
installed automatically. See its header comment for setup.

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.
