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
11 rules. 2 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 9 are very specific to this project.
2
Common
Most of the 71 edited versions we read keep these.
0
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
9
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 71 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
Agentic Workflows Router
Use this skill when a user asks to design, create, update, debug, or upgrade GitHub Agentic Workflows in this repository.
This skill is a dispatcher: identify the task type, load the matching workflow prompt/skill file, and follow it directly. Keep responses concise and ask a clarifying question if the correct prompt is unclear.
Repository overlay (optional):
- If
.github/aw/instructions.mdexists, load it with@.github/aw/instructions.mdafter loading the matched prompt/skill. - Precedence: repository overlay instructions override upstream defaults when they conflict.

.github/aw/configure-agentic-engine.md - Update existing workflows:
.github/aw/update-agentic-workflow.md - Diagnose, patch, audit, or actively debug workflows:
.github/aw/debug-agentic-workflow.md(local-first strategy, evidence triage and live gates) - AWF model/endpoint 400s, silent cross-family sub-agent failures,
model: autofailures, install-step 404s after a version pin, or questions about version fields: go directly to Model and engine misconfiguration before suggesting model changes. - Upgrade workflows and fix deprecations:
.github/aw/upgrade-agentic-workflows.md - Create shared components or MCP wrappers:
.github/aw/create-shared-agentic-workflow.md - Create report-generating workflows:
.github/aw/report.md - Fix Dependabot manifest PRs:
.github/aw/dependabot.md - Analyze coverage workflows:
.github/aw/test-coverage.md - Render compact markdown charts:
.github/aw/asciicharts.md - Map CLI commands to MCP usage:
.github/aw/cli-commands.md - Choose workflow architecture and patterns:
.github/aw/patterns.md - Design, deploy, inspect or recover a Git-backed work queue:
.github/aw/work-queue.md - Optimize token usage and cost:
.github/aw/token-optimization.md - Design long-running multi-agent research workflows:
.github/aw/multi-agent-research.md - Add skills or agent plugins requested by the user (
skills:/plugins:frontmatter, never on-the-fly installs):.github/aw/skills.md
When the task involves OTEL, OTLP, traces, observability backends, or telemetry-driven analysis, also read and follow skills/otel-queries/SKILL.md after loading the matching workflow prompt or skill.
When creating, updating, diagnosing or upgrading a workflow that uses tools.work-queue, also load .github/aw/work-queue.md after the primary prompt. Load deployment docs, operator reference or specification only when that task needs them.
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.
