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
4 rules. About 0 are common, 3 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈3
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 8
Read in parallel, then stop reading once you have what you need:
- Very specific: line 12
Only open a tracker (*_tracker.md) if hot.md lacks the detail.
- Distinctive: line 34
Never invent a status or deadline.
- Distinctive: line 35
If hot.md was last updated more than 2 days ago, say so.
≈ “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.
Files
/boot: the 30-second session briefing
Read in parallel, then stop reading once you have what you need:
.remember/hot.md: deadlines, active projects, tracks, hard rulesdaily/<today>.mdif it exists
Only open a tracker (*_tracker.md) if hot.md lacks the detail. Never read big trackers by default.
Output (exactly this, no intro)
BOOT: <date>
Kill list (hard deadlines in the next 7 days)
Date | What | Status. If none: "None this week".
Active projects
One line each: name, status, what's left.
Tracks
One line per track from hot.md: where you are, what's next.
Today
Daily note headline, or "No daily note. Create one?"
What are we doing?
Rules
- Load the "Hard rules" section of hot.md into working memory and never break them.
- Never invent a status or deadline. If it isn't in the files, say "unknown, check
<file>". - If hot.md was last updated more than 2 days ago, say so.
- At the end of the session, remind the user to run /tldr.
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.
