Onboard a repo into Chock. args(repo_path, agents, agent_agnostic)
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
4 rules. About 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 3 are 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.
3
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Very specific: line 36
After the CLI finishes, review AGENTS.md and docs/ with the user and hand off to policy-init for the first business policy.
- Distinctive: line 40
Never duplicate deterministic setup logic that the CLI already performs.
- Very specific: line 41
Do not ask for a framework_path.
- Very specific: line 43
Never touch root README.md or user files in docs/.
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 308,232 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.

Chock Init
Bootstrap a consumer repo with the minimal Chock surface. Creates AGENTS.md, docs/, .agents/, .chock/config.yaml, and agent wrappers for every surface: .claude/CLAUDE.md, .cursorrules, .cursor/rules/chock.mdc, .windsurfrules, .windsurf/rules/chock.md, .devin/README.md, .gemini/GEMINI.md, .grok/GROK.md, .kimi-code/AGENTS.md, .github/copilot-instructions.md, .github/agents/chock.agent.md, codex.md, CONVENTIONS.md, .aider.conf.yml, replit.md, guidelines.md. Default (no agent selection): .claude/CLAUDE.md, .github/copilot-instructions.md, .gemini/GEMINI.md only. Idempotent.
Procedure
- inputs(repo_path, agents[], agent_agnostic).
- Delegate deterministic scaffolding to the CLI:
chock init [--agents ...] [repo_path]. - After the CLI finishes, review
AGENTS.mdanddocs/with the user and hand off topolicy-initfor the first business policy.
Rules
- Never duplicate deterministic setup logic that the CLI already performs.
- Do not ask for a
framework_path; the CLI carries the baseline packs. - Hand edits to derived wrappers are not preserved on re-run.
- Never touch root
README.mdor user files indocs/. - YAGNI: add only requested wrappers; delete wrappers for deselected agents.

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.
