Router over the harness skills — which skill fits your situation, and the main flow through them. NOT for performing the routed work itself — it only points; invoke the skill it names.

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
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 79
pre-tool-guard / risk-area mutexes: stop destructive or contested operations → the user drives those.
≈ “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.
Files
/harness-help
You don't remember every skill, so ask. Most work travels one main flow;
everything else is standalone. Each skill below is documented in its own
skills/<name>/SKILL.md (core) or extras/skills/<name>/SKILL.md — this router
only says when to reach for which.
The main flow: idea → shipped
/spec <slug>— turn a fuzzy request intospec.md+plan.mdunder.agent/plans/<slug>/, then route to plan approval (ExitPlanMode). Add--interviewwhen the request is fuzzy enough that a wrong guess would commit the spec to the wrong shape, or--score-candidateswhen the field of problems/approaches is wide enough that the pick should be scored, not asserted. Approval is what unlocks editing —spec-gatestops asking once the plan-approval flag exists./supervise <slug>— run the approved plan wave by wave, dispatching specialists per the delegation contract and auditing after each wave.--goal-modefor budgeted, resumable runs./verify-completion <claim>— before accepting any "done": a fresh context re-checks the claim mechanically, then a refute-by-default judge./supervisecalls this at its completion step; reach for it directly whenever a builder's word is the only evidence./wrap— commit + PR with the safety gates (gitleaks, risk areas) intact.--auto-push/--auto-mergeare opt-in escalations.
A single small edit needs none of this — just make the edit; the gates scope trivial work out by design.
Standalone
/council-review [--staged|--head|<range>]— multi-vendor second opinion on a diff (Claude reviewer plus codex/gemini lanes), synthesized with citation checks./project-init(command) — scaffold a consumer project withCLAUDE.md, rules, andgitleaks.toml.- Security — diff-level security review is the
security-revieweragent (auto-dispatched on risk paths); a whole-repository or branch vulnerability scan is the official/claude-securityplugin when installed (/plugin install claude-security@claude-plugins-official).
Extras plugin (agent-harness-extras, optional)
Rarely used skills live in a second plugin so the core stays light. Install once
with /plugin install agent-harness-extras@agent; its skills appear namespaced as
/agent-harness-extras:<name> (the short /<name> works when unambiguous — note
loop collides with Claude Code's built-in /loop, so use the namespaced form).
Each is documented in its own extras/skills/<name>/SKILL.md:
/harness-audit— read-only health check of the harness itself: oneverify-all.shdry-run, a per-check table, the doc-reality verdict named./manager-audit <slug>— meta-audit of a/superviserun (restatement, routing waste, token spend, role compliance)./persona-review <target>— a panel of grounded Korean citizen personas reacts to a piece of UX/copy/content; a user-perspective lens, not a code review./reorg-sync <old> <new>— after a directory move, sweep orphaned absolute-path references; dry-run first./code-tour [path|range]— write a human reading path through a codebase or a just-finished build; edits no source./worker-setup— install → auth → verify onboarding for the cross-vendor worker lanes (codex, antigravity), with a cost briefing before anything installs./loop <mission>and/harness-loop— bounded-attempt improvement loop (generic, and specialized to this harness's reviewer prompts)./brain-ingest— distill quarantined brainraw/captures into curated notes.
The gates underneath
Skills are the methodology; hooks are the enforcement. When one interrupts you mid-flow, it names its own escape:
- spec-gate asks for a plan on a substantive edit → run
/spec. - tdd-guard blocks new prod code with no failing test → write the test first.
- pre-tool-guard / risk-area mutexes stop destructive or contested operations → the user drives those; don't route around them.
Keeping this router honest
Any skill added to or removed from skills/ or extras/skills/ updates this file
in the same commit — a router that lies is worse than no router.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

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.
