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
4 rules. About 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 2 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈2
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
2
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 8
Do not stage or include pending worktree changes.
- Very specific: line 13
Use the configured upstream as the base.
- Very specific: line 17
Run git reset --soft <base> so the committed branch changes remain staged.
- Distinctive: line 20
Create the replacement commit without bypassing hooks.
≈ “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
Squash
Do not stage or include pending worktree changes. Require a clean worktree and index; when either is dirty, stop and ask the user to commit or discard that work first.
- Inspect the current branch, worktree and index status, configured upstream, recent commits, and remotes.
- Use the configured upstream as the base. If none exists, resolve the remote default branch and
use its merge base with
HEAD; ask when no base is unambiguous. - List commits between the base and
HEAD. If there are zero or one, report that there is nothing to squash and stop. - Run
git reset --soft <base>so the committed branch changes remain staged. - Analyze the complete staged diff and all squashed commit messages. The final message MUST follow the latest published Conventional Commits specification, keep its first line under 72 characters, and incorporate any user-provided message guidance.
- Create the replacement commit without bypassing hooks. Do not push.
Report the final commit message, base, and number of commits squashed.

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
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.
