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 CLAUDE.md into the rules it gives an agent
1 rule. About 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈1
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 42
Must start with YAML frontmatter:
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 26,980 CLAUDE.md 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
CLAUDE.md
This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
Project Overview
This repository contains custom Claude skills—modular packages that extend Claude's capabilities with specialized workflows and domain knowledge. Skills are used with both Claude Code (CLI) and Claude.ai (web/mobile/desktop).
Build Commands
# Package a single skill for Claude.ai upload
python build.py <skill-name>
# Package all skills
python build.py --all
# List available skills with validation status
python build.py --listOutput: .skill files in dist/ (ZIP archives with skill contents)
Architecture
Skill Structure
Each skill is a top-level folder containing:
<skill-name>/
├── SKILL.md # Required: instructions + YAML frontmatter
├── references/ # Optional: documentation loaded on-demand
└── assets/ # Optional: templates, examplesSKILL.md Requirements
Must start with YAML frontmatter:
name(required): skill identifierdescription(required, min 20 chars): determines when the skill activates
Build System
build.py validates skills and packages them as ZIP archives:
- Validates YAML frontmatter presence and required fields
- Excludes hidden files,
.DS_Store,__pycache__ - Creates
<skill-name>.skillindist/
Requires: pyyaml (for frontmatter parsing)
Usage Modes
Claude Code: Reference skills directly via filesystem paths in project
CLAUDE.md or global ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md
Claude.ai: Upload packaged .skill files via Settings → Skills
Templates
The templates/ directory contains document templates and guides for
configuring Claude Code:
| Document | Purpose |
| CLAUDE-MD-template.md | Project or global instructions for Claude |
| HUMAN-MD-template.md | Relationship document — helps Claude know who you are |
| SKILL-MD-template.md | Create custom skills (slash commands) |
| SESSION-HANDOFF-template.md | Preserve context when sessions end |
| CORRECTION-template.md | Give Claude structured feedback it can learn from |
| compaction-strategy.md | What to preserve when context is compressed |
| CLAUDE-MD-GUIDE.md | Deep dive into why each CLAUDE.md section matters |
| PROMPT-GUIDE.md | How to write prompts that get better results |
| INTERACTION-PATTERNS.md | How different phrases affect Claude's processing |
| CLAUDE_DNA.md | Understanding who Claude is — values, preferences, limitations |

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.
