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
3 rules. About 0 are common, 3 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈3
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
Write like a careful human who ships, not a brochure.
- Distinctive: line 11
Prefer concrete nouns and verbs over abstractions.
- Distinctive: line 13
Keep contractions when the brand allows.
≈ “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.

Humanise
Write like a careful human who ships, not a brochure.
Moves
- Prefer concrete nouns and verbs over abstractions.
- Cut throat-clearing openers and empty intensifiers.
- Keep contractions when the brand allows; vary sentence length.
- Speak to one reader doing one job.
- Admit tradeoffs in one honest clause when real.
- Microcopy: say what happens next, not what the brand believes.
Pair with
no-ai-slopfirst if the draft is templated.optional-ponytailonly if the user wants characterful voice.
Anti-patterns
- Fake folksiness, slang piles, or forced jokes.
- Celebrity cosplay or invented personal anecdotes.
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.
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.
