Name the thing for what it does in that context. Do not use Gate as a default label. Triggers: "Never over use the word Gate, use semantically meaniful name for the context and situation"; "why all the llms are now using 'gate' word too much. rename it to something semantic and meaniful".

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
3 rules. About 0 are common, 3 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈3
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
0
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 24
When you name a module, flag, route, type, or function, use a word that states the job in this context.
- Distinctive: line 25
Do not use Gate as a default label.
- Distinctive: line 26
If a name already uses Gate, rename it to a semantic name and update the call sites in the same change.
≈ “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.
Files
semantic-name
Name the thing for what it does in that context. Do not use Gate as a default label.
When / skip
| Use | Skip |
| naming a module, flag, route, type, or function | the user asked for the word Gate |
| an existing name uses Gate as a default label | a domain word that already states the job |
Procedure
- When you name a module, flag, route, type, or function, use a word that states the job in this context.
- Do not use Gate as a default label. Do not invent Gate compounds unless the user asks for that word.
- If a name already uses Gate, rename it to a semantic name and update the call sites in the same change.
Done when
- The name states the job in this context
- Call sites match the new name in the same change
- A search of the change shows no leftover Gate label for that thing
Anti-patterns
| ¬ | Do |
| Gate as a default label | a word that states the job |
| rename the declaration only | update call sites in the same change |
| invent a Gate compound | keep Gate only when the user asked for that word |
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.
