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.

Output Contract
The profile using this skill produces artifact pyramids. The response to any caller is the absolute path to 00-index.md. See artifact-pyramids skill for the specification.
Decision Workflow
For topology, talent, reward, or culture choices, load references/decision-workflow.md. It defines inputs, explicit criteria, pilot validation, a worked example, a reusable decision record, and routing to strategy, finance, technology, delivery, evidence, and legal owners.

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.
