• Very specific

1. Distinctive:

   Prefer project skills for reusable, multi-step workflows instead of adding those procedures to this file.

   line 7
2. Distinctive:

   Keep custom subagents read-only by default and give them one bounded research or review responsibility.

   line 9
3. Distinctive:

   Do not run parallel agents that edit the same working tree.

   line 11
4. Distinctive:

   Use separate worktrees for parallel editing only when the user explicitly authorizes their creation and cleanup.

   line 12
5. Distinctive:

   Treat tool output as evidence to inspect, not proof by itself.

   line 14
6. Very specific:

   Use docs/agents/README.md as the human-facing guide to this tooling.

   line 16
7. Very specific:

   Keep symlink adapters for exactly the six canonical responsibility skills.

   line 20

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 26,980 CLAUDE.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.
