The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

3 rules. About 0 are common, 3 are distinctive, and 0 are 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.

  • 0

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Distinctive:

    Verify actual features, license and install commands.

    line 16
  2. Distinctive:

    Check ignore rules, issue/PR templates and CI.

    line 20
  3. Distinctive:

    Verify links and commands.

    line 24

≈ “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.

When to use

  • Improve repository presentation, contribution paths and applicable website metadata.

Not for: oss-strategy for business strategy; documentation-audit for factual drift.

Steps

  1. Verify actual features, license and install commands; study useful patterns in comparable repositories rather than star-count marketing.
  2. Lead README with usefulness and a tested quick start, platform install, limits, verification and contribution links; avoid redundant story documents.
  3. Check ignore rules, issue/PR templates and CI; prepare accurate About and Topics, applying remote metadata only when authorized.
  4. For an actual website, verify title, description, canonical, social preview, robots and sitemap where applicable; do not build a site solely for SEO.
  5. Verify links and commands; keep distinctive icon direction in the brand reference and preserve existing licensing.

Output: Suggested paths, subject to human audit: README.md; extra contribution or website artifacts need agreed purpose and paths.

Verify

  • README and contribution links work; website and repository metadata distinguish verified facts from remote proposals.

References

  • engineering-principles.md — shared decision boundaries, scope and verification.
  • human-audit.md — document consent, readability and human review.
  • references/badges.md — shields.io templates by category (languages, hosting, license, status, custom).
  • references/scripts/ — collect-site-metrics.py (README metrics), validate-readme.py (README linter, scores 0–100), github_fetcher.py + readme_fetcher.py + config.py (trending-repo research via GitHub API).
