Skill59 starsChanged 52 days agoMITView on GitHub

Creates and updates reusable, source-backed technology knowledge bases under a project's wiki/ directory. Use this skill when asked to build, expand, refresh, or audit a wiki or knowledge base about frameworks, libraries, platforms, protocols, or engineering practices. Do not use for project documentation, specifications, architecture decisions, implementation plans, changelogs, or one-off research answers that need no reusable wiki.

    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

5 rules. About 0 are common, 4 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈4

    Distinctive · estimate

    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
  1. Distinctive:

    Write reusable technology knowledge, never documentation for the containing project.

    line 19
  2. Distinctive:

    Do not create README.md, index, overview-only, or navigation files.

    line 21
  3. Distinctive:

    Ask the user when material scope, audience, version, or topic-priority ambiguity would change the wiki.

    line 24
  4. Distinctive:

    Prefer several focused files over one exhaustive document.

    line 37
  5. Very specific:

    Inventory: Read the existing wiki/<topic-name>/ files and relevant dependency/configuration evidence.

    line 42

≈ “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.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Create Wiki

Critical rules

  • Write reusable technology knowledge, never documentation for the containing project. Exclude project architecture, requirements, decisions, status, and project-specific examples.
  • Store each technology or topic under wiki/<topic-name>/ with descriptive topic-area files such as best-practices.md or queues-and-jobs.md.
  • Do not create README.md, index, overview-only, or navigation files. Filenames and focused content must make discovery sufficient.
  • Research before writing. Prefer official, version-matched documentation, source, changelogs, standards, and first-party examples; corroborate risky or ambiguous claims.
  • Synthesize instead of copying. Retain source URLs while making each file useful without reopening every source.
  • Ask the user when material scope, audience, version, or topic-priority ambiguity would change the wiki.

Content standard

Each file should provide only the sections useful for its topic:

  • concise mental model and key takeaways
  • correct, runnable examples with assumptions and version constraints
  • day-to-day workflows and recommended defaults
  • common failure modes, edge cases, anti-patterns, and diagnostics
  • trade-offs and when an alternative is preferable
  • links to authoritative sources

Prefer several focused files over one exhaustive document. Avoid generic introductions, duplicated documentation, unsupported opinion, and content saved “just in case.”

Workflow

  1. Frame. Confirm the technology, versions, audience, depth, and requested output. Separate reusable knowledge from project-specific material; route the latter to project documentation, create-plan, or another owning workflow.
  2. Inventory. Read the existing wiki/<topic-name>/ files and relevant dependency/configuration evidence. Identify stale claims, gaps, overlap, and established style before choosing filenames.
  3. Research. Investigate official documentation, implementation/source, changelogs, and credible real-world failure evidence. Resolve version conflicts; where sources disagree or version behavior can't be established, label the uncertainty and its practical consequence rather than guessing.
  4. Design. Choose focused topic-area files around actual tasks, boundaries, and pain points. Update existing files instead of creating parallel coverage; preserve accurate material, replace superseded guidance explicitly so no files contradict each other, and leave unrelated topics alone.
  5. Write. Produce concise, actionable Markdown with examples, pitfalls, version notes, and direct source links. Keep all prose and examples portable to another project using the same technology.
  6. Validate. Re-read the whole topic set to remove duplication and verify code/API claims against the targeted version.

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
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

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.
