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
2 rules. 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 17 edited versions we read keep these.
1
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
1
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Very specific: line 25
Use for critical facts: "Project uses pnpm", "API in src/api/client.ts"
- Distinctive: line 26
Keep it SHORT - this eats into your context budget
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 17 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.
Files
Note Skill
Save important context to .omx/notepad.md that survives conversation compaction.
Usage
| Command | Action |
/note <content> | Add to Working Memory with timestamp |
/note --priority <content> | Add to Priority Context (always loaded) |
/note --manual <content> | Add to MANUAL section (never pruned) |
/note --show | Display current notepad contents |
/note --prune | Remove entries older than 7 days |
/note --clear | Clear Working Memory (keep Priority + MANUAL) |
Sections
Priority Context (500 char limit)
- Always injected on session start
- Use for critical facts: "Project uses pnpm", "API in src/api/client.ts"
- Keep it SHORT - this eats into your context budget
Working Memory
- Timestamped session notes
- Auto-pruned after 7 days
- Good for: debugging breadcrumbs, temporary findings
MANUAL
- Never auto-pruned
- User-controlled permanent notes
- Good for: team contacts, deployment info
Examples
/note Found auth bug in UserContext - missing useEffect dependency
/note --priority Project uses TypeScript strict mode, all files in src/
/note --manual Contact: api-team@company.com for backend questions
/note --show
/note --pruneBehavior
- Creates
.omx/notepad.mdif it doesn't exist - Parses the argument to determine section
- Appends content with timestamp (for Working Memory)
- Warns if Priority Context exceeds 500 chars
- Confirms what was saved
Integration
Notepad content is automatically loaded on session start:
- Priority Context: ALWAYS loaded
- Working Memory: Loaded if recent entries exist
This helps survive conversation compaction without losing critical context.
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.
