The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
2 rules. About 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 1 is 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.
1
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 10
Use this specialist when the actual task involves flow issues.
- Very specific: line 20
Read references/playbook.md for exact discriminating checks, implementation examples, tradeoffs and acceptance tests.
≈ “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.

Movement and visual flow
Scope
Use this specialist when the actual task involves flow issues. Check documented brand/system decisions before prescribing changes. Do not conflate taste with accessibility standards or make assumptions from screenshots alone.
Affecting category: flow. Related governing principles: movement, emphasis. Route from design-diagnose or design-review when observations match this category, or load directly during a focused implementation.
Procedure
- scan-path-dead-end: Reorder content blocks and align landmarks; use directional image crops only if they support task flow. Verify: Observed scan and task completion reach intended conclusion.
- visual-dom-order-conflict: Preserve meaningful DOM sequence and use CSS only to reflow, not semantically reorder tasks. Verify: Tab and screen-reader sequence agree with visible logical flow.
- dense-progress-story: Introduce clear subheads, grouping, whitespace and step-specific emphasis; avoid ornamental arrows. Verify: Task walkthrough can explain what is next at each section.
Read references/playbook.md for exact discriminating checks, implementation examples, tradeoffs and acceptance tests. Keep the fix within the existing component architecture. Report original observation, selected recipe and evidence. For usability, engage ux-*; for normative accessibility, engage wcag-*.
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.
