define-scope
Skill6 starsChanged 3 months agoNo licenceView on GitHub
Define a new **scope** — a stable reference frame (service, domain, surface, cross-cutting concern) that the vault cares about for years rather than the duration of a narrative arc. Use this when the user says things like "we need a scope for X", "add a scope", "register the billing service", "document this as a domain we care about". Scopes are flat (no hierarchy), they don't have arcs' narrative lifecycle, and they retire rather than close. Don't create a scope lightly — scope proliferation is a smell. If it's a short-lived effort, use `open-arc` instead.

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
12 rules. About 0 are common, 8 are distinctive, and 4 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈8
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
4
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
No licence file, so all rights are reserved — read it at the source. We count its rules but don't quote them. Read them on GitHub.
≈ “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.
