Run long or repetitive commands (builds, pytest/ctest, SLURM jobs, solver logs) through a clustering summarizer instead of reading raw output; re-runs show only what changed. Use for output likely over ~100 lines or fix-test-fix loops.

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
2 rules. About 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈1
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
1
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 26
Read the summary, not the raw log.
- Very specific: line 29
Only if the summary is insufficient, use the printed retrieval_handles (get <id> --lines A:B, event <id> --event N, grep <id> '<pattern>', …
≈ “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.

!"${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/bin/compost" mode --banner
Agents that do not expand the line above (e.g. Codex): run
<this-skill-dir>/bin/compost mode --banner first and follow it.
Offline, deterministic: output is parsed and clustered by script (no LLM); the full raw output is always kept on disk. Skip it for short output -- just read that directly.
compost is not on PATH: always use the full <this-skill-dir>/bin/compost
path (or python3 <this-skill-dir>/scripts/compost.py if executables are
not permitted).
- Run:
<this-skill-dir>/bin/compost run -- <command...>(pipes/redirects needbash -c '...'). Prints the root error (first error in user code), secondary failure groups with counts, warnings, numerical summary, and araw_output_id. - Read the summary, not the raw log.
- Re-run the same command the same way: only new/resolved errors and count deltas are printed ("No structural changes." if none).
- Only if the summary is insufficient, use the printed
retrieval_handles(get <id> --lines A:B,event <id> --event N,grep <id> '<pattern>',show <id> --json). They never re-run the command; they read the already-stored raw output. - Existing log file:
bin/compost ingest --file <path>(or--stdin). - The plugin's Bash hook may deny a raw build/test command and name the
compost command to run instead: run that. Need raw output (e.g. to show
the user)? Append
# rawto the command.
Profiles (auto-detected, --profile to override): pytest, ctest, gcc/clang,
cmake, python_traceback, slurm, numerical_solver, generic.
Output fields, statuses, storage and retention: references/schema.md.
Per-profile detection: references/profiles.md.

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.
