We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

2 rules. About 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈2

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 0

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  1. Distinctive:

    Use this skill to design repeatable agent workflows that can run manually, on a schedule, or from a hook.

  2. Distinctive:

    Add a dry-run path and at least one smoke test.

≈ “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.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Agent Loop Design

Use this skill to design repeatable agent workflows that can run manually, on a schedule, or from a hook.

Workflow

  1. Define the trigger: manual, file change, schedule, failed check, or user phrase.
  2. Define scope, permissions, and stopping criteria before execution.
  3. Record evidence: inputs, commands, files touched, outputs, and verification.
  4. Make installation reversible with a manifest of every path created.
  5. Add a dry-run path and at least one smoke test.
  6. Promote the loop only after it passes validation and a human review gate.

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
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

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.
