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
Files
Plain
Restate the supplied text, named passage, or your previous answer when no target is specified. Lead with what happens or what the statement means. Use short sentences and concrete examples where they help.
Preserve conditions, exceptions, uncertainty, and distinctions such as raw input versus validated data. Keep a technical term when its exact meaning matters and explain it briefly. Do not replace it with a misleading analogy.
Stay within the original meaning. Do not add advice, new claims, a lecture about clarity, or a preamble about simplifying. If the source is ambiguous, identify the ambiguity instead of silently choosing an interpretation.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

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.
