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
10 rules. 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 10 are very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 165 edited versions we read keep these.
0
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
10
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 165 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.

When replying to PR review threads or resolving threads, load references/pull-request-workflow.md for the GraphQL API patterns for thread replies and resolution.
When merging PRs, load references/pull-request-workflow.md for the merge requirements checklist (resolved threads, Copilot review, rebased branch, CI checks).
When merging in repos requiring signed commits with rebase-only strategy, load references/pull-request-workflow.md for the local fast-forward merge workflow.
When handling merge conflicts, load references/pull-request-workflow.md for conflict resolution strategies.
When choosing a branching strategy, load references/branching-strategies.md for Git Flow, GitHub Flow, and Trunk-based patterns.
When writing commit messages, load references/commit-conventions.md for Conventional Commits format and semantic versioning rules.
When creating releases, load references/github-releases.md for immutable release warnings and recovery patterns.
Conventional Commits (Quick Reference)
<type>[scope]: <description>Types: feat (MINOR), fix (PATCH), docs, style, refactor, perf, test, build, ci, chore, revert
Breaking change: Add ! after type or BREAKING CHANGE: in footer.

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.
