Template showing the skill file format. Replace or delete this directory. Claude matches this description text to decide when a skill applies, so real skills should name concrete trigger phrases here, e.g. "use when the user asks to cut a release, tag a version, or write release notes".

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
Files
Example skill
This directory exists to show the layout. Delete it once there are real skills.
Structure
The frontmatter above is the only required part. name should match the
directory name; description is the trigger text Claude matches against.
Everything below the frontmatter is the instruction body, loaded into context when the skill fires. Keep it short and concrete — steps, not background.
Supporting files
Large reference material belongs in a separate file next to this one, pointed at by path rather than pasted inline:
For the full field list, read
reference.mdin this skill's directory.
That keeps the skill cheap to load and lets Claude pull in detail only when it actually needs it.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.
No reviews yet
People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.
- It worked
- Partly
- It didn't
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.
