This is a sample skill template for Axe. Skills are reusable instruction sets that guide AI agents in performing specific tasks. Use this template as a starting point for creating your own skills. Describe the expected structure and format of the skill's output. For example:

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.

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.

Write step-by-step instructions that an AI agent can follow.
≈ “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.

Sample Skill
Purpose
This is a sample skill template for Axe. Skills are reusable instruction sets that guide AI agents in performing specific tasks. Use this template as a starting point for creating your own skills.
Instructions
- Define a clear, focused purpose for your skill.
- Write step-by-step instructions that an AI agent can follow.
- Be specific about inputs, constraints, and expected behavior.
- Include examples where helpful.
Output Format
Describe the expected structure and format of the skill's output. For example:
- Format: Plain text, Markdown, JSON, etc.
- Structure: Headings, bullet points, code blocks, etc.
- Length: Approximate expected length or constraints.
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.
