principles
Skill1 starsChanged 27 days agoNo licenceView on GitHub
Thinking, product and engineering principles with a grouped index and full per-principle references. Load at the start of any non-trivial task — designing, implementing, refactoring, debugging, migrating, reviewing, or shipping code; making a product or UX decision; writing anything a user or customer reads — and whenever the user invokes /principles, names a principle, or asks for common sense or first principles. Not needed for casual questions or trivial mechanical edits. When user invokes or mentions this skill, you must read the skill and applicable principles in full.

Xia-AtaraxiaSkillbenchmark-checklist
Vets performance measurements for the limiter, tuning, physical limits, errors, repeatability, relevance, and proof that timed work happened. It applies to 'check this benchmark', 'report this speedup', measured regressions, and choosing a library or configuration from numbers. It reports spread and gaps before drawing a conclusion. Not for general testing policy or choosing test oracles - use principle-testing.

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.

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.
