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
6 rules. About 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 6 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈0
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.

Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

≈ “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
Apple Search Ads CLI
Use asa-cli to interact with the Apple Search Ads Campaign Management API v5. Always use -o json when you need to parse results programmatically.
Organizations
Run asa-cli whoami to list available orgs. For multi-org accounts, pass --org-id with every command (except whoami). Single-org accounts auto-detect the org.

--profile | -p | Named config profile |
--verbose | -v | Show HTTP request/response details |
--no-color | Disable colored output |
Config
- Config stored at
~/.asa-cli/config.yaml, token cache at~/.asa-cli/token_cache.json - Profiles:
asa-cli configure -p production --client-id "..." ..., thenasa-cli campaigns list -p production - Env var overrides:
ASA_CLIENT_ID,ASA_TEAM_ID,ASA_KEY_ID,ASA_ORG_ID,ASA_PRIVATE_KEY_PATH
Guidelines
- Always use
-o jsonand pipe throughjqwhen extracting specific fields - For multi-org accounts, always include
--org-id— runasa-cli whoami -o jsonto discover org IDs - Fetch campaign/adgroup IDs first before operating on child resources
- Use
--allon find commands to auto-paginate large result sets - Reports require
--start-dateand--end-datein YYYY-MM-DD format - Currency is auto-detected from the org — no need to specify it manually
- Ad group create requires
--start-time(ISO 8601 format, e.g."$(date -u +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.000)"for now) --auto-keywordsdefaults tofalse(search match OFF). Only enable explicitly when creating discovery ad groupskeywords findmay return 404 on paused/deleted campaigns — usekeywords listas a fallback- Default pagination limit is 20. Use
--limit 50(or higher) when expecting more results (e.g. negative keywords) - Report metrics use v5 field names:
totalInstalls,tapInstalls,viewInstalls,totalNewDownloads,totalRedownloads,totalInstallRate,tapInstallRate,totalAvgCPI,tapInstallCPI,avgCPM— not the old v4 names - Use
--grand-totalson campaign reports to get aggregated totals across all campaigns

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.
