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.

After switching, restart the engine or portal as needed.
≈ “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.

Context Manage
Manage Kurtosis contexts for connecting to different Kurtosis instances.
What are contexts?
Contexts define which Kurtosis instance the CLI talks to. The default context is default which connects to the local engine (Docker or Kubernetes).
List contexts
kurtosis context lsShows all configured contexts and which one is active.
Add a context
kurtosis context add <context-name>Switch context
kurtosis context set <context-name>After switching, restart the engine or portal as needed.
Remove a context
kurtosis context rm <context-name>Common workflow
# Check which context is active
kurtosis context ls
# Switch to a different environment
kurtosis context set staging
# Verify the switch succeeded
kurtosis context ls
# Start portal if using a remote context
kurtosis portal start
# Switch back to local
kurtosis context set defaultError handling
| Scenario | Behavior | Resolution |
| Switch to non-existent context | Command fails with error | Run kurtosis context ls to see available contexts |
| Remove active context | Command fails — cannot remove active | Switch to another context first with kurtosis context set |
| Engine running after switch | Engine still connected to old context | Run kurtosis engine restart after switching contexts |
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.
