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. 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 2 are very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 19 edited versions we read keep these.
2
Distinctive
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
- Very specific: line 56
Use Python 3.14 and install all extras before proving a change: uv sync --all-extras --python 3.14 (also performed by bin/setup).
- Distinctive: line 84
No workflow restructuring is needed to keep these commands aligned.
- Very specific: line 88
Run every command from the repo root — the scripts cd there themselves.
- Distinctive: line 106
Add the test that fails first, then the fix — a green run that never went red proves nothing.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 19 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.

Verify a change in developerz-ai/claude-task-master
House skill — established by dz-runner setup mode from this repo’s own detected commands. Correct it in place; setup never overwrites a skill that exists.
The one gate
bin/check is the local gate, also invoked by the pre-commit hook. CI does not
invoke it: .github/workflows/ci.yml independently runs equivalent lint, test,
and PR-package commands. Keep this script aligned with those gates; a local pass
is evidence for the local environment, not a guarantee that CI will pass.
| Step | Command | What it is |
| install | bin/setup | Check host prerequisites, install missing apt packages as root or via non-interactive sudo, run mise install, select global uv@0.13 and python@3.14, sync all extras, then create the empty external profile volume. Each failed step stops setup. |
| run | bin/dev | docker compose up --build --wait --wait-timeout 180 rebuilds the checkout and returns success only after health readiness. On developerz.ai runs, start it with code_bash_background when you need a running stack. |
| prove | bin/check | Whole-tree Ruff lint/format checks and mypy; CI-profile tests with coverage; distribution build and CLI help/doctor/status smoke checks (mapping below). |
| stop | bin/stop | docker compose stop — on developerz.ai runs, the platform runs this when your session ends — do not stop the stack yourself |
Supported setup and startup
bin/setup supports Debian/Ubuntu-style hosts with Bash, dpkg and apt-get.
Install mise and Docker with the Compose plugin first, and put mise-managed tools
on PATH (including uv after mise use). Compose must support up --wait and
--wait-timeout. The caller needs Docker daemon access and, when apt packages
are missing, root privileges or working non-interactive sudo -n access.
Network access is needed for apt, mise and uv downloads. Setup retains the global
mise selections for uv 0.13 and Python 3.14 and installs all project extras.
It creates claudetm-profiles only after dependency sync succeeds; it never reads,
copies or provisions credentials.
bin/dev builds from the checked-out Compose build context rather than relying
on a potentially stale image. Compose waits for the existing REST /health
check; startup/health failures return nonzero, with a 180-second readiness wait
bound. This is not a wall-clock bound on the image build. Successful startup
leaves the stack detached. Compose mounts and credential isolation are unchanged:
health readiness does not require a personal login or an agent credential, and
is not proof that authenticated agent operations work.
uv run pytest tests/test_bin_scripts.py -q --timeout=120 runs copied scripts in
a temporary repo using PATH-injected fake tools and an isolated HOME. It pins
ordering, root/sudo package installation, fail-fast behavior and dev rebuild/wait
arguments without invoking real apt, Docker, credentials or global mise changes.
These regressions are not evidence of real downloads, image builds or service
health. The coordinator's read-only survey could not execute real setup/dev;
record actual bin/setup, bin/dev and bin/check results separately when run
on a supported host. Do not claim real startup based on fake-tool tests alone.
CI-to-local gate mapping
Use Python 3.14 and install all extras before proving a change:
uv sync --all-extras --python 3.14 (also performed by bin/setup). CI selects
Python 3.14 and installs the editable package with uv pip install -e ".[all]".
| CI job | Local equivalent in bin/check |
| Lint | uv run ruff check ., uv run ruff format --check ., and uv run mypy . retain CI's whole-tree scope. |
| Tests | HYPOTHESIS_PROFILE=ci and TMPDIR=/tmp uv run pytest tests/ -n 2 -q --timeout=120 --cov=claude_task_master --cov-report=xml:coverage.xml --cov-report=term-missing. |
| Build & CLI Smoke Test (PRs only in CI) | uv build --out-dir "$build_dir", then uv run claudetm --help, uv run claudetm doctor, and uv run claudetm status. |
Local tests deliberately use two workers rather than CI's -n auto to stay within
the shared box's resource ceiling. TMPDIR=/tmp remains scoped to pytest.
Coverage produces .coverage data, coverage.xml, and a terminal missing-lines
report. These artifacts are local evidence; the script does not upload them.
The build uses a unique temporary directory under ${TMPDIR:-/tmp} and cleans it
on exit, including failed builds or smoke checks. Pre-existing dist/ artifacts
are neither overwritten nor deleted. As in CI, the CLI probes run against the
editable project environment, not an installation of the built wheel.
Lint, formatter check, typecheck, tests, build, and CLI help must all succeed;
the script stops on failure. Only doctor and status use CI's explicit || true
tolerance: missing credentials or project state may make them fail. Their output
remains visible, but a successful gate does not certify those two probes passed.
CI's test-output/build-artifact uploads and Codecov submission are reporting, not local gates. Tag-triggered package/Docker publishing and manual test publishing workflows are release operations, not part of this local PR gate. No workflow restructuring is needed to keep these commands aligned.
Rules
- Run every command from the repo root — the scripts
cdthere themselves. bin/checkred is not a pull request. Fix the cause, never silence the gate.
Exit codes bin/check must use
A coding box runs this gate before it commits, and it has to tell a FAILING change from a gate it could not run — otherwise correct work is thrown away as if it were red. Exit 1 cannot carry that difference, so one code is reserved:
| Exit | Means | What the platform does |
| 0 | the change passes | commit it |
| 75 | a resource the gate NEEDS is unreachable (a database, a service, a credential) — it refused to grade | refuse the commit, and blame the environment, never the change |
| any other non-zero | the gate ran and the change is red | refuse the commit, and blame the change |
- Guard preconditions FIRST and
exit 75when one is unmet.exit 1there tells the platform your change is broken when it is your environment that is. - Changed a dependency? Re-run
bin/setupbeforebin/check, or you are proving a stale tree. - Add the test that fails first, then the fix — a green run that never went red proves nothing.
Does it work?

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.
