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
- Distinctive: line 8
Follow the existing hosting and scheduling architecture.
- Distinctive: line 14
Test cancellation, host shutdown, capacity, failure handling and representative duplicate work with deterministic coordination.
≈ “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.

Background Services Dotnet
Follow the existing hosting and scheduling architecture. Define ownership, concurrency, backpressure, cancellation, failure recovery and durable state before implementation.
- Observe the worker task and propagate shutdown. Stop intake and allow bounded in-flight completion before disposal; define what happens to unfinished work.
- Resolve scoped dependencies inside a scope per appropriate unit of work. Do not share scoped or non-thread-safe state concurrently.
- Bound queues and concurrency according to downstream capacity. Treat restarts, duplicate work and ambiguous outcomes explicitly; make side effects idempotent where required.
- Classify poison work and permanent failures separately from transient failures. Do not add retries unless explicitly requested or required by existing architecture.
- Test cancellation, host shutdown, capacity, failure handling and representative duplicate work with deterministic coordination.
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.
