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
3 rules. About 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈2
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 24
If the user hasn't given any of these, ask before drafting (one consolidated question).
- Distinctive: line 52
No emojis unless the user explicitly requests them.
- Very specific: line 56
Never invent a number. Use [INSERT METRIC] if the user hasn't supplied one.
≈ “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
write-linkedin-post
A LinkedIn post that performs has three properties:
- The first line stops the scroll before "see more" is clicked.
- The body tells a story the reader recognizes (or shows the work behind a result).
- The post earns its CTA — a real, specific ask, not "thoughts?".
Inputs to gather
Before drafting, confirm:
- Topic — what is this post about in one sentence?
- Voice —
founder-operator,technical-builder,analyst-commentator, orcommunity-host. Defaultfounder-operator. - Goal — awareness, recruiting, demand-gen, recruiting feedback, community building?
- CTA — what should a reader do? (Reply, click, DM, share their answer.) If no CTA, ask whether to skip it.
- Numbers / specifics — any metric, timeline, or named example to anchor the post. If none, ask before inventing.
If the user hasn't given any of these, ask before drafting (one consolidated question).
Structure
<HOOK — ≤ 12 words, ends with a period.>
<context — 1 short sentence>
<the story / data / before-and-after — 3-6 single-sentence paragraphs>
<the takeaway — 1 line, in plain English>
<CTA — optional, single specific ask>Total length: 80-180 words. White space is a feature.
Hooks that work (templates, not formulas)
- Counterintuitive claim: "Hiring senior engineers slowed us down."
- Specific number: "We replied to 412 cold emails this quarter. 11 became customers."
- Before/after: "Two years ago I couldn't read a P&L. Last week I closed our seed round."
- Confession: "I shipped a bug to production at 4pm on Friday. Here's what we changed."
- Sharp observation: "Most 'AI strategies' I read are 90% AI and 0% strategy."
Hard rules
- No emojis unless the user explicitly requests them.
- Max 3 hashtags, lowercase, end of post.
- No "agree?", "thoughts?", "what do you think?" as the closer.
- No "I'm thrilled to announce" / "humbled and honored" / "incredibly excited."
- Never invent a number. Use
[INSERT METRIC]if the user hasn't supplied one.
Output format
## Draft (voice: <preset>)
<the post>
## Why this hook
<one line on the angle and why it should stop the scroll>
## Variants
1. <alternate first line — different angle>
2. <alternate first line — different angle>
## Posting checklist
- [ ] Numbers verified
- [ ] Tagged people consented
- [ ] Image / carousel attached (if applicable)
- [ ] Posted to personal vs company page (chosen)Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

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.
