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.
Where files are headingNew Cursor rule files have more rules about planning and tracking tasks, and fewer about code style.
Of the Cursor rule files we read, the 4,157 first seen in the last six months, against the older ones: the kind of rule that gained most share, and the kind that lost most. About files like this in general, not this one, and an estimate, since a kind is a pattern in the words.

The file

We split this git-operations.mdc into the rules it gives an agent

4 rules. About 0 are common, 3 are distinctive, and 1 is 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.
1
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

Common
Distinctive
Very specific

Very specific:
Before any commit, push, tag, or release-related action: read and follow .agents/instructions/git/git-policy.instructions.md.
line 8
Distinctive:
Only commit when the user explicitly asks
line 17
Distinctive:
Do not git push unless the user explicitly asks in the current message
line 21
Distinctive:
Do not create remote branches or worktrees unless asked
line 22

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 6,668 Cursor rule 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.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

# Git operations (agents)

**Before any commit, push, tag, or release-related action:** read and follow `.agents/instructions/git/git-policy.instructions.md`.

## Commits (checklist)

- Subject: conventional `type(scope): subject` (allowed types in `commitlint.config.mjs`)
- Body: terse `-` bullet points only — not prose paragraphs
- Multiline messages: `git commit -F <message-file>` (not inline `-m` heredocs)
- Optional `Verification:` section with short bullets
- **Never** `Co-Authored-By`
- Only commit when the user explicitly asks

## Push / remote

- Do not `git push` unless the user explicitly asks in the current message
- Do not create remote branches or worktrees unless asked

## Releases

Human-only — see git-policy for the full deny list. Clarify ambiguous requests (e.g. "ship it") before acting.

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.
