    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. About 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 3 are very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈0

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 3

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Very specific:

    Pick a device: Call mobile_list_available_devices and use one of the returned devices for every subsequent call.

    line 18
  2. Very specific:

    See the screen: Prefer mobile_list_elements_on_screen — it returns the accessibility tree with element labels and coordinates.

    line 22
  3. Very specific:

    Use mobile_save_screenshot when the user wants the image as a file.

    line 41

≈ “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.

Mobile Automation with Mobile MCP

Tools for driving real phones, emulators and simulators. All tools are prefixed mobile_.

Workflow

  1. Pick a device. Call mobile_list_available_devices and use one of the returned devices for every subsequent call. If no device is available, ask the user to connect one (Android: adb devices must show it; iOS: simulator booted or device paired).
  2. See the screen. Prefer mobile_list_elements_on_screen — it returns the accessibility tree with element labels and coordinates. It is faster, cheaper, and more reliable than screenshots. Fall back to mobile_take_screenshot only when elements are missing or you need visual confirmation (games, canvas-drawn UI, image content).
  3. Act. mobile_click_on_screen_at_coordinates, mobile_swipe_on_screen, mobile_type_keys, mobile_press_button (HOME, BACK, VOLUME, ENTER), mobile_launch_app / mobile_terminate_app / mobile_list_apps, mobile_open_url.
  4. Verify after every action. Re-list elements (or re-screenshot) to confirm the UI changed as expected before the next step. Mobile UIs animate; if the expected element is not there yet, wait briefly and check again rather than tapping blind.

Tips

  • Click the center of an element's bounds, not its top-left corner.
  • To type, first tap the input field, confirm it is focused, then mobile_type_keys.
  • Use mobile_save_screenshot when the user wants the image as a file; mobile_start_screen_recording / mobile_stop_screen_recording for videos.
  • App crashed? mobile_list_crashes and mobile_get_crash fetch crash logs.
  • Screen size from mobile_get_screen_size; coordinates are in that space.
  • Real devices in the cloud (no local hardware): mobile_login_to_cloud_provider, then mobile_list_remote_devices / mobile_allocate_remote_device, and release with mobile_release_remote_device when done. See https://mobilenext.ai/docs for details.

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.
