Use this skill when certifying a GGUF model family for skippy stage-split serving, reviewing capability data, promoting family evidence into topology policy, or updating staged split certification docs.
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
5 rules. About 0 are common, 3 are distinctive, and 2 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈3
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
2
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 10
Use this skill for end-to-end family certification, not a one-off correctness smoke.
- Very specific: line 21
Use the GGUF/native model metadata for layer and state shape, and review topology constraints in skippy/crates/skippy-topology.
- Very specific: line 39
Default activation wire dtype is f16.
- Distinctive: line 42
Do not recommend transferring recurrent state during normal decode unless the family has explicit reviewed evidence for it.
- Distinctive: line 46
Keep lifecycle phases separate for large models: inspect/materialize, drop any full source model, then launch staged serving.
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 308,232 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.

skippy-family-certification
Use this skill for end-to-end family certification, not a one-off correctness smoke. Certification means collecting evidence for full-model parity, staged activation handoff, recurrent/hybrid state behavior, topology constraints, selected-device behavior, and package materialization.
Workflow
- Inspect the model with
skippy-runtime::ModelInfoor the skippy-model-package helpers before choosing split points. Keep topology policy inskippy/crates/skippy-topology. - Use the GGUF/native model metadata for layer and state shape, and review
topology constraints in
skippy/crates/skippy-topology. Do not enable default staged splits without evidence inskippy/docs/FAMILY_STATUS.mdand the release-bound certification roster generated fromci/llama-canary/family-certified.json. - For dense models, validate at least one representative two-stage boundary and one multi-stage boundary. For recurrent or hybrid families, validate recurrent ranges explicitly and treat recurrent owners as topology-affinity constraints.
- Compare staged output against full-model execution with the correctness
harness when it is present. In this mesh repo, some standalone skippy harness
crates may still be migration candidates; do not invent replacement commands
without checking
cargo metadata.
Decision Rules
Default activation wire dtype is f16. Treat q8 as per-family and per-split
opt-in only after exactness evidence exists.
Do not recommend transferring recurrent state during normal decode unless the family has explicit reviewed evidence for it. Prefer sticky recurrent ownership and route future tokens for the same sequence back to those owners.
Keep lifecycle phases separate for large models: inspect/materialize, drop any full source model, then launch staged serving. Avoid holding a full source GGUF resident while testing staged servers.

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.

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.
