Public (MIT) repository of reusable Claude Code skills, agents, and example templates. Published content is Markdown only: skills are SKILL.md files Claude Code loads by trigger phrase, agents are YAML-fronted .md subagent definitions, and examples are copy-and-customise templates.

- Reads credentials
Where files are headingNew AGENTS.md files have more rules about keeping secrets out of the code, and fewer about code style.
Of the AGENTS.md files we read, the 31,774 first seen in the last six months, against the older ones: the kind of rule that gained most share, and the kind that lost most. About files like this in general, not this one, and an estimate, since a kind is a pattern in the words.
In this repository16 other files it gives its agents.

The file
We split this AGENTS.md into the rules it gives an agent
7 rules. About 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 6 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.
6
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Very specific: line 35
Keep published content Markdown-only — no package.json, Makefile, or build output.
- Very specific: line 36
Follow CLAUDE.md for frontmatter and section rules.
- Distinctive: line 39
Keep the README tables in sync when adding, renaming, or removing a skill, agent, or example.
- Very specific: line 41
Never write to ~/projects/raw/ (human-curated wiki layer, protected by a PreToolUse hook).
- Very specific: line 45
No local test runner. CI (.github/workflows/validate-skills.yml) runs on push/PR touching skills/, agents/, examples/, or …
- Very specific: line 46
Run the identical checks locally from the repo root: awk '/^ run: \|/{f=1;next} f' .github/workflows/validate-skills.yml | sed 's/^ //' | …
- Very specific: line 57
Keep description: on one line — CI reads only that line, so description: > fails and description: | escapes the length check.
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 40,246 AGENTS.md 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.

Purpose
Public (MIT) repository of reusable Claude Code skills, agents, and example templates. Published content is Markdown only: skills are SKILL.md files Claude Code loads by trigger phrase, agents are YAML-fronted .md subagent definitions, and examples are copy-and-customise templates. There is no build step and no package manifest. The only executable code is the CI validator (inline Bash in .github/workflows/validate-skills.yml) and scripts/attention-check.sh, a health scanner consumed by the ~/projects Attention Hub.
Key Files
| File | Description |
CLAUDE.md | Canonical conventions — skill/agent frontmatter format, success criteria, gotchas. Read before editing any skill or agent |
README.md | Public docs — skills/agents/examples tables, install commands, MCP requirements, CI summary |
LICENSE | MIT licence |
.gitignore | Ignores .omc/, .claude/, .DS_Store, and secret-bearing patterns (.env*, *.pem, *.key, credentials.json, …) |
.claudeignore | Claude Code context exclusions (generic Node/build/log/env patterns; header comment mislabels the repo as TypeScript/Node) |
Subdirectories
| Directory | Purpose |
skills/ | Published skills, one kebab-case directory each (see skills/AGENTS.md) |
agents/ | Subagent definition files (see agents/AGENTS.md) |
examples/ | Adaptation templates with placeholders (see examples/AGENTS.md) |
scripts/ | attention-check.sh — Attention Hub scanner, not used by CI (see scripts/AGENTS.md) |
.github/ | GitHub Actions CI (see .github/AGENTS.md) |
.claude/ | Optional gitignored local configuration; contents vary by checkout. |
.omc/ | Gitignored oh-my-claudecode session state. Generated — do not edit or document |
For AI Agents
Working In This Directory
- Keep published content Markdown-only — no
package.json, Makefile, or build output. - Follow
CLAUDE.mdfor frontmatter and section rules; bumpmetadata.versionon every functional skill change. - Conventional commits (
feat:,fix:,docs:,chore:); Australian English (colour, behaviour, organise, licence as noun). /skill-compliance-checklistonly audits what it is pointed at: its--allscan covers~/.claude/skills/,~/.claude/scheduled-tasks/, and.claude/agents/— not this repo'sskills/. Pass explicit paths (e.g.skills/gmail-workflow/SKILL.md).- Keep the README tables in sync when adding, renaming, or removing a skill, agent, or example.
scripts/attention-check.shis invoked by path from outside this repo — do not move or rename it.- Never write to
~/projects/raw/(human-curated wiki layer, protected by a PreToolUse hook).
Testing Requirements
- No local test runner. CI (
.github/workflows/validate-skills.yml) runs on push/PR touchingskills/,agents/,examples/, or.github/workflows/. - Run the identical checks locally from the repo root:
awk '/^ run: \|/{f=1;next} f' .github/workflows/validate-skills.yml | sed 's/^ //' | bash - Hard failures: no
---on line 1, missing or non-kebabname:, missingdescription:, description > 1024 chars or containing</>, file > 5,000 words (whole file incl. frontmatter). Missing## Error…/## Troubleshoot…and## Example…headings only warn. - Agents are checked only for the
---delimiter and a non-emptyname:;references/files are never validated. scripts/:bash scripts/attention-check.sh 2>/dev/null | python3 -m json.tool.
Common Patterns
- Skill:
skills/{kebab-name}/SKILL.md, optionalreferences/for long material (progressive disclosure). - Agent:
agents/{kebab-name}.mdwithname,description,license,model: sonnet,tools. - Example:
examples/{name}/SKILL.md+references/customisation guide; placeholders stay generic. - Keep
description:on one line — CI reads only that line, sodescription: >fails anddescription: |escapes the length check.

<!-- MANUAL: -->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
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.
