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. 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 51 edited versions we read keep these.
1
Distinctive
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
- Very specific: line 36
No vague messages — chore: update is bad, chore: update check-access script is good
- Distinctive: line 42
Only when the "why" cannot be inferred from the type + description alone.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 51 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
Git Commit Convention
Goal: Every commit must have a short, single-line message in the format
<type>: <description>. The description should be lowercase, imperative, and under 72 characters. No multi-line bodies unless the change genuinely cannot be understood without one.
Format
<type>: <short description>- type: one of the allowed prefixes (see below)
- description: imperative mood, lowercase, no period at end
- length: aim for under 50 chars, hard limit 72 chars
Allowed Types
| Type | When to use |
feat | Adding a new skill, command, or capability |
fix | Fixing a bug or broken behavior in a skill |
docs | Changes to README or skill documentation only |
chore | Maintenance tasks, config changes, cleanup |
system | Plugin infrastructure: hooks, setup scripts, settings |
Rules
- One commit per logical change — do not bundle unrelated changes
- Single line only — no body, no footer unless strictly necessary
- Lowercase description —
feat: add propose skillnotfeat: Add Propose Skill - Imperative mood —
fix: handle missing world statenotfixedorfixes - No vague messages —
chore: updateis bad,chore: update check-access scriptis good - No
Co-Authored-By— never add this trailer - No

When a Body IS Acceptable
Only when the "why" cannot be inferred from the type + description alone.
fix: fall back to python3 base64 decode on Windows
base64 -d is not available in Git Bash on Windows; python3
decode is cross-platform and already required by the plugin.Examples
See examples/ for good and bad examples per type:
- examples/feat.md
- examples/fix.md
- examples/docs.md
- examples/chore.md
- examples/system.md
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.
