Use when auditing the freshness of `.claude/rules/subsystem-*.md` files against current codebase state, or when a subsystem has undergone significant change.

The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

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

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈1

    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
  1. Very specific:

    Check .claude/rules/subsystem-*.md files match current codebase.

    line 15
  2. Distinctive:

    Before major feature branches

    line 70

≈ “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.

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

Validate Context Rules

Check .claude/rules/subsystem-*.md files match current codebase.

Workflow

For each subsystem-*.md rule file:

  1. Read the rule — Extract type names, module paths, function names, error variants
  2. Grep the codebase — Verify each reference exists
  3. Check for new additions — Find new public types/modules not in rule
  4. Report — List stale references + missing additions

Subsystem Rules to Check

RuleKey References to Verify
subsystem-cli.mdCLI context struct, command enum variants, output trait
subsystem-cli-api.mdReport data types, output trait conventions
subsystem-cli-commands.mdDocumented command surface vs implemented commands
subsystem-file-structure.mdStorage layout, data-root constraints
subsystem-tests.mdFixture names in conftest.py, test file names, runner methods, helper params

Subsystem rules are provisional placeholders while the implementation is scaffolded — verify against current src/ as code lands.

Verification Commands

# Check if a type still exists
grep -r "pub struct TypeName" src/
grep -r "pub enum TypeName" src/

# Check if a module still exists
ls src/module_name/

# Check for new public types not in the rule
grep -rn "^pub struct\|^pub enum\|^pub trait" src/ | grep -v test

Output Format

## Context Validation Report

### subsystem-cli.md
- OK: [type] still present
- STALE: [type] — renamed to [new_name] or removed
- MISSING: [new_type] — not documented in rule

### subsystem-file-structure.md
...

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.
