Writing documents for agents. Use when creating or editing skills or modifying AGENTS.md.
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
2 rules. 2 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.
2
Common
Most of the 173 edited versions we read keep these.
0
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
0
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
The licence could not be identified — read it at the source. We count its rules but don't quote them. Read them on GitHub.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 173 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

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.

Other files people use alongside this one.
Files found in the same public projects as a version of this one, more often than they turn up anywhere else. Each project counts once, large collections count for less, and this file's own repository is left out.

J03Fr0stSkillwriting-for-humans
Write and revise human-facing prose so it is clear, specific, natural, and faithful to the author's intent and genre. Use for emails, articles, reports, documentation, announcements, talks, and other prose when the user asks to draft, diagnose, edit, rewrite, make writing less formulaic or less AI-like, sound more natural or direct, or match a supplied voice. Do not use for agent instructions such as skills or AGENTS.md, code-only work, verbatim transcription, or translation without editorial changes.

liufeng1976Skillsetup-ts-deep-modules

Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.
Reviews can't be read right now.
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.
