Initialize Poietic Harness at session start, checking existing installations or bootstrapping missing user components.

The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

2 rules. About 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 0 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.

  • 0

    Very specific

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

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Distinctive:

    Run once per session, combining global and project invocations.

    line 9
  2. Distinctive:

    Only when the personal installation is missing, follow initial setup.

    line 12

≈ “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.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Poietic Harness session start

Run once per session, combining global and project invocations.

  • For an existing installation or toolkit checkout, follow routine checks.
  • Only when the personal installation is missing, follow initial setup.

Preserve pins and local expertise. Startup does not authorize upgrades or inference. Report actionable mismatches, unavailable checks, or completed first-time setup; otherwise continue the user's task. Consult the knowledge index and memory index only for relevant additional context.

Does it work?

Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

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.

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.
