The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
3 rules. About 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈2
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 18
When the user wants to see affected projects:
- Distinctive: line 22
Use the provided project name or detect from current directory.
- Very specific: line 26
Read the ## Relationships section from WORKSPACE.md:
≈ “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.

Skill: Workspace Affected
Description
Show the dependency graph for a project - what depends on it and what it depends on. Useful for understanding the impact of changes.
Arguments
[project]- Project to analyze (defaults to current project)
Instructions
When the user wants to see affected projects:
Step 1: Identify Target Project
Use the provided project name or detect from current directory.
Step 2: Parse Relationships
Read the ## Relationships section from WORKSPACE.md:
## Relationships
- admin -> api (REST client, consumes /api/v1/*)
- homepage -> api (product catalog, consumes /api/v1/products)
- mobile -> api (REST client, consumes /api/v1/*)Format: consumer -> provider (description)
Step 3: Build Dependency Graph
For the target project, identify:
- Dependents (what depends on this project)
- Dependencies (what this project depends on)
Step 4: Display Graph
🔗 Dependency graph for: api
Projects that depend on api (will be affected by changes):
├── admin (REST client, consumes /api/v1/*)
├── homepage (product catalog, consumes /api/v1/products)
└── mobile (REST client, consumes /api/v1/*)
Projects that api depends on:
└── (none)
Impact summary:
• Changes to api may affect 3 projects
• Consider running tests in: admin, homepage, mobileUse Cases
- Before making breaking changes: "I'm changing the API response format, what will break?"
- Planning deployments: "What order should I deploy these changes?"
- Understanding architecture: "How do these projects connect?"
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.
