throwaway-scripts
Skill2 starsChanged 5 months agoLicence not identifiedView on GitHub
For repetitive or bulk work that a short script can do in one shot, write the script, run it, and delete it, instead of grinding through many manual tool calls. Use this WHENEVER a task scales with N: renaming or transforming many files, extracting or reshaping data, bulk edits across a pattern, generating boilerplate, or any mechanical loop. Doing it by hand burns tokens and turns; a script does it deterministically and cheaply. Check which runtimes the system actually has (bun or node, python, powershell, bash), pick one that is present, write the smallest script that works, run it, verify, then clean it up.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
4 rules. About 0 are common, 4 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈4
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
0
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.

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.
