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.

≈ “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.

Research Inputs
Collect the channel or video URLs, audience, category, business goal, comparison channels, date window, available analytics, and research limits. Use first-party analytics when evaluating the user's own channel.
Analysis Framework
| Area | Inspect | Output |
| Positioning | Audience, promise, recurring topics, differentiation. | Channel position. |
| Outliers | Views, velocity, topic, format, and age. | Outlier list. |
| Packaging | Title, thumbnail, opening promise, length. | Packaging patterns. |
| Content | Structure, examples, proof, pacing, CTA. | Content patterns. |
| Audience | Comments, questions, objections, requests. | Audience language. |
| Conversion | Description, links, lead magnet, offer, CTA. | Conversion path. |
Outlier Method
Compare each video with the channel's median performance over a defined window. Record the denominator, date, and source. Investigate the topic and packaging together. Do not copy a title or thumbnail without understanding the audience promise.
Test Plan
Create hypotheses for topics, titles, thumbnails, openings, length, format, and calls to action. Define the change, expected result, measurement window, and stop condition.
Output Format
| Finding | Evidence | Hypothesis | Recommended Test | Metric | Priority |
Follow with channel positioning, outlier table, content gaps, packaging patterns, audience questions, conversion opportunities, and a 30-day test calendar.
Next Step
Provide the channel URL, target audience, business goal, and available analytics window.

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.
