The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

3 rules. 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 165 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 2

    Distinctive

    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
  1. Distinctive:

    CRITICAL: Do NOT push to remote branches.

    line 23
  2. Very specific:

    CRITICAL: Do NOT attempt to create Pull Requests or use GitHub CLI (gh).

    line 24
  3. Distinctive:

    Always verify your changes locally before generating the patch.

    line 25

“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.

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

Git Workflow Skill

This skill provides guidelines for interacting with the Git repository and generating patches.

Steps

  1. Clone Repository: git clone https://github.com/<owner>/<repo>.git
  2. Make Changes: Edit files in the cloned repository.
  3. Generate Patch:
    • For a simple diff: git diff > ../output/fix.patch
    • For a proper commit-based patch:
      git add .
git commit -m "Fix: describe the fix"
git format-patch -1 HEAD --output-directory=../output/

Rules

  • CRITICAL: Do NOT push to remote branches.
  • CRITICAL: Do NOT attempt to create Pull Requests or use GitHub CLI (gh).
  • Always verify your changes locally before generating the patch.
  • Save all generated patches to {workspace}/output/.

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
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

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.
