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 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 typography 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.

Typography
Scope
Use this specialist when the actual task involves typography issues. Check documented brand/system decisions before prescribing changes. Do not conflate taste with accessibility standards or make assumptions from screenshots alone.
Affecting category: typography. Related governing principles: proportion, contrast. Route from design-diagnose or design-review when observations match this category, or load directly during a focused implementation.
Procedure
- type-scale-drift: Adopt a modest fluid type scale with named roles; test large text and line wrapping before freezing values. Verify: All headings map to named roles; layout tolerates 200% zoom and longer strings.
- body-text-cramped: Tune measure (approx. 55–75 characters), line-height, margins and readable body size; adjust by font and task. Verify: Reading in narrow and wide screens has no clipped lines or forced horizontal scrolling.
- mixed-type-personality: Choose one versatile family or purposeful display/body pairing; define fallbacks and license-valid loading. Verify: Fonts render consistently under slow network/fallback and in multilingual content.
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.

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.
