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
5 rules. About 0 are common, 4 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈4
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 26
Date: Use the exact path found in step 1 to find the commit date when the file was first added, including any filename suffix:
- Distinctive: line 30
If the file is untracked (not yet committed), use today's date.
- Very specific: line 57
Read all adr-*.md files in docs/adrs/
- Distinctive: line 59
Look up the git creation date for each file
- Distinctive: line 61
Ensure the table is formatted with consistent column widths
≈ “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.

Update ADR Inventory Skill
This skill updates the inventory table in docs/adrs/README.md to reflect the current set of ADR files.
Process
- Scan
docs/adrs/for all files matchingadr-*.md - Extract from each file:
- ADR number from the filename (e.g.,
adr-0003.md->ADR-0003) - Title from the
# ADR-NNNN: <Title>heading on line 1 - Status from the first nonblank paragraph under
## Status:- Extract only the status label:
🟡 Proposed,✅ Accepted,❌ Deprecated, or🔄 Superseded. - For a superseded ADR, retain
by [ADR-NNNN](actual-filename.md)when present. - Omit dates, amendment notes, and other explanatory prose even when
they follow a date or wrap onto another line. For example,
✅ Accepted (2026-05-06) — supersedes ...becomes✅ Accepted, and🔄 Superseded by [ADR-0038](adr-0038.md) (2026-06-13) — originally ...becomes🔄 Superseded by [ADR-0038](adr-0038.md).
- Extract only the status label:
- ADR number from the filename (e.g.,
- Date: Use the exact path found in step 1 to find the commit date when the file was first added, including any filename suffix:
If the file is untracked (not yet committed), use today's date.git log --follow --diff-filter=A --format=%as -- "docs/adrs/<actual-filename>.md" - Rebuild the inventory table in
docs/adrs/README.md, sorted by ADR number ascending - Format the table using the format-table skill for consistent column widths
Table Format
The inventory table uses this structure:
## Inventory
| ADR | Status | Date | Title |
|--------------------------|-------------|------------|-----------------------------------|
| [ADR-0000](adr-0000.md) | ✅ Accepted | 2026-02-10 | Use Architecture Decision Records |Column Details
| Column | Source | Example |
| ADR | Filename, linked: [ADR-NNNN](...) | [ADR-0000](adr-0000.md) |
| Status | Status label, plus successor link when present | ✅ Accepted / 🔄 Superseded by [ADR-NNNN](adr-NNNN.md) |
| Date | Git first-commit date or today | 2026-02-10 |
| Title | H1 heading after ADR-NNNN: | Use Architecture Decision Records |
Instructions
- Read all
adr-*.mdfiles indocs/adrs/ - For each file, extract the title from line 1 and status from the Status section
- Look up the git creation date for each file
- Replace the inventory table section in
docs/adrs/README.mdwith the updated table - Ensure the table is formatted with consistent column widths

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.
