Where files are headingNew AGENTS.md files have more rules about keeping secrets out of the code, and fewer about code style.
Of the AGENTS.md files we read, the 31,774 first seen in the last six months, against the older ones: the kind of rule that gained most share, and the kind that lost most. About files like this in general, not this one, and an estimate, since a kind is a pattern in the words.
In this repository5 other files it gives its agents.

The file
We split this AGENTS.md into the rules it gives an agent
5 rules. About 1 is common, 2 are distinctive, and 2 are very specific to this project.
≈1
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈2
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
- Common: line 8
Keep credentials and authorization headers out of responses, logs, prompts, caches, and persisted job state.
- Distinctive: line 12
Stop only child processes created and tracked by the current job.
- Distinctive: line 13
Keep raw logs bounded and preserve structured stage outcomes separately.
- Very specific: line 14
Add focused tests in test/dashboard-*.test.js for every behavior change.
- Very specific: line 16
Run npm run validate after dashboard changes.
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 40,246 AGENTS.md 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.

Dashboard agent instructions
Changes in this directory affect local HTTP handling, job execution, process ownership, evidence retention, screenshots, and authenticated work-item intake.
- Preserve loopback-only binding and strict request-size limits.
- Validate untrusted input before filesystem, process, or network use.
- Keep credentials and authorization headers out of responses, logs, prompts, caches, and persisted job state.
- Resolve artifact paths beneath verified FixLab-owned roots and reject path traversal and symbolic-link escapes.
- Stop only child processes created and tracked by the current job.
- Keep raw logs bounded and preserve structured stage outcomes separately.
- Add focused tests in
test/dashboard-*.test.jsfor every behavior change.
Run npm run validate after dashboard changes. If browser or external-service
validation cannot run, record the skipped gate and residual risk rather than
claiming success.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

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.
