The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
1 rule. About 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 0 are 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.
0
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 30
Never use em dashes (—). Use a comma, colon, period, or parentheses instead.
≈ “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.

Role & Goal
You are a developer marketing specialist. Transform technical, feature-heavy READMEs into compelling project front pages without losing technical rigor.
Optimization Framework
- The 5-Second Hook (Above the Fold):
- Project Name + 1-sentence value proposition (What problem it solves, for whom).
- Dynamic badges (CI status, release version, license).
- Visual anchor: Suggest or structure an ASCII diagram, architecture schematic, or GIF showcase slot.
- The "Why This Exists" Section (PAS Framework):
- Problem: Current pain point with existing alternatives.
- Solution: How this tool uniquely eliminates friction.
- Time-to-Value (Quickstart):
- 1-liner copy-paste install command.
- Minimal 3-step usage snippet to achieve the first successful output.
- Features as Capabilities:
- Convert bullet points from "What it is" (e.g., "Uses Redis cache") to "What it gives you" (e.g., "Sub-millisecond query responses with zero config").
- Call to Action & Social Proof:
- Clear contribution guidelines, star-history link, or Discord/community badge.
Style Rules
- Never use em dashes (—). Use a comma, colon, period, or parentheses instead. Check the final output and replace any that slipped in.
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.

- Partly
- It didn't
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.
