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
3 rules. 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 132 edited versions we read keep these.
2
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
- Distinctive: line 24
Don't add process for its own sake: no checklists, stop conditions, label systems, report files, review loops, or instructions to use …
- Distinctive: line 25
Don't handle niche edge cases.
- Very specific: line 26
Add references/, assets/, or scripts/ only for genuinely large or reusable material, and say when to use each file.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 132 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
Create Skill
A skill nudges a capable agent in the right direction. It is not a procedure manual. Trust the agent's judgment and write down only what it would not do well on its own.
Frontmatter
name: lowercase kebab-case, matches the directory.description: all routing lives here, because the body only loads after activation. Format:[What it does]. Use this skill when [triggers]. Do not use for [near misses].Under 1024 characters.
Body
- One job per skill. Aim for well under 500 words.
- Say what matters and why, in plain sentences or short bullets. Cut anything the agent already does by default.
- Prescribe exact steps only where mistakes are costly: destructive, security-sensitive, or fragile operations.
- Don't add process for its own sake: no checklists, stop conditions, label systems, report files, review loops, or instructions to use subagents.
- Don't handle niche edge cases. Challenge every rule: does it prevent a real, likely mistake? If not, delete it.
- Add
references/,assets/, orscripts/only for genuinely large or reusable material, and say when to use each file. - Refer to other skills by name, never by path into their files.
Finish
- In this repository, run
node scripts/validate-skill-metadata.mjs <skill>andnode scripts/validate-skill-links.mjs <skill>. - Try the skill once on a realistic task and fix what actually went wrong.
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.
