We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
3 rules. 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 2 are very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 55 edited versions we read keep these.
1
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
2
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

Verify it works: curl -s "URL" | head -20
- Distinctive: line 59
No API key needed
- Very specific: line 62
Use schedule_task for periodic monitoring
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 55 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.

Blog Watcher
Monitor blogs and news sources via RSS/Atom feeds.
When to Use
- "Check if there's anything new on [blog]"
- "Monitor this RSS feed for updates"
- "What's the latest on [tech blog]?"
- Setting up scheduled blog monitoring
Commands
Fetch an RSS Feed
curl -s "https://example.com/feed" | head -100Common Feed URL Patterns
Most blogs have feeds at predictable URLs:
/feedor/rssor/atom.xml/feed.xmlor/index.xml- WordPress:
/feed/ - Medium:
/feed - Substack:
/feed
Extract Titles and Links
# Titles
curl -s "https://example.com/feed" | grep -oP '(?<=<title>).*?(?=</title>)'
# Links
curl -s "https://example.com/feed" | grep -oP '(?<=<link>).*?(?=</link>)'JSON Feed (if available)
curl -s "https://example.com/feed/json" | jq '.items[:5] | .[] | {title, url, date_published}'Workflow: Periodic Monitoring
- Find the blog's RSS feed URL
- Verify it works:
curl -s "URL" | head -20 - Set up a scheduled task with
schedule_taskto check periodically - Save last-seen entries to compare on next check
Notes
- No API key needed
- Works with any standard RSS 2.0 or Atom feed
- Some sites block curl — add a User-Agent:
curl -s -H "User-Agent: CianaParrot/1.0" "URL" - Use
schedule_taskfor periodic monitoring

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.

Files found in the same public projects as a version of this one, more often than they turn up anywhere else. Each project counts once, large collections count for less, and this file's own repository is left out.

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.
