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
2 rules. 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 3 edited versions we read keep these.
1
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
1
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Very specific: line 6
Read .quota-burner/CONTRACT.md and the configured team context before targeting.
- Distinctive: line 8
Remove dead code in confidence-ordered batches.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 3 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
Files
Read .quota-burner/CONTRACT.md and the configured team context before targeting. Standalone invocation follows repository permissions and does not authorize a PR by itself.
Remove dead code in confidence-ordered batches.
Targeting: the static dead-code tools for your stack (knip, ts-prune, vulture, deadcode); take one reviewable batch from most to least certain. Check dynamic loading, configured scan exclusions, stylesheets, assets, and public entry points before treating an unreported reference as absent.
Done: build, typecheck, and tests green; uncertain candidates listed in the PR body, not deleted (dynamic imports, reflection, and externally consumed APIs are the classic false positives).

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.
