Files found in the same public projects as a version of this one, more often than they turn up anywhere else. Each project counts once, large collections count for less, and this file's own repository is left out.
lilangMaxSkillcreate-stories
Break a single epic into implementable story files. Reads the epic, its GDD, governing ADRs, and control manifest. Each story embeds its GDD requirement TR-ID, ADR guidance, acceptance criteria, story type, and test evidence path. Run after /create-epics for each epic.
Also in 9 projects that use this
lilangMaxSkillstory-done
End-of-story completion review. Reads the story file, verifies each acceptance criterion against the implementation, checks for GDD/ADR deviations, prompts code review, updates story status to Complete, and surfaces the next ready story from the sprint.

Microsoft AzureSkillcomponent-release
Prepares a verifiable Agent Landing Zone UI release. Use for release branches, VERSION, changelog entries, tags, release notes, and compatibility evidence; never publish without explicit human approval.

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
1 rule. 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 29 edited versions we read keep these.
1
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
0
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 9
When this skill is invoked:
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 29 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
Files
When this skill is invoked:
- Determine the next ADR number by scanning
docs/architecture/for existing ADRs. - Gather context by reading related code and existing ADRs.
- Guide the user through the decision by asking clarifying questions if the title alone is not sufficient.
- Generate the ADR following this format:
# ADR-[NNNN]: [Title]
## Status
[Proposed | Accepted | Deprecated | Superseded by ADR-XXXX]
## Date
[Date of decision]
## Context
### Problem Statement
[What problem are we solving? Why does this decision need to be made now?]
### Constraints
- [Technical constraints]
- [Timeline constraints]
- [Resource constraints]
- [Compatibility requirements]
### Requirements
- [Must support X]
- [Must perform within Y budget]
- [Must integrate with Z]
## Decision
[The specific technical decision made, described in enough detail for someone
to implement it.]
### Architecture Diagram
[ASCII diagram or description of the system architecture this creates]
### Key Interfaces
[API contracts or interface definitions this decision creates]
## Alternatives Considered
### Alternative 1: [Name]
- **Description**: [How this would work]
- **Pros**: [Advantages]
- **Cons**: [Disadvantages]
- **Rejection Reason**: [Why this was not chosen]
### Alternative 2: [Name]
- **Description**: [How this would work]
- **Pros**: [Advantages]
- **Cons**: [Disadvantages]
- **Rejection Reason**: [Why this was not chosen]
## Consequences
### Positive
- [Good outcomes of this decision]
### Negative
- [Trade-offs and costs accepted]
### Risks
- [Things that could go wrong]
- [Mitigation for each risk]
## Performance Implications
- **CPU**: [Expected impact]
- **Memory**: [Expected impact]
- **Load Time**: [Expected impact]
- **Network**: [Expected impact, if applicable]
## Migration Plan
[If this changes existing code, how do we get from here to there?]
## Validation Criteria
[How will we know this decision was correct? What metrics or tests?]
## Related Decisions
- [Links to related ADRs]
- [Links to related design documents]- Save the ADR to

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.
