The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
7 rules. About 0 are common, 4 are distinctive, and 3 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈4
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
3
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 12
Write the description of one pull request or merge request, called a Review Proposal in the delivery workflow.
- Very specific: line 14
Use the target repository's instructions, proposal template, and docs/agents/code-host.md binding when present.
- Very specific: line 18
Use the applicable canonical domain vocabulary.
- Distinctive: line 20
Use this default template when the repository supplies none:
- Distinctive: line 45
Keep prose brief and detail proportional to the change.
- Very specific: line 101
Use diff when the point is what changes and the surrounding shape already exists.
- Distinctive: line 162
Place each visual next to the short text it supports.
≈ “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 the description of one pull request or merge request, called a Review Proposal in the delivery workflow. This skill owns description content only. The caller retains authority over publication, draft state, review, merge, and ticket transitions.
Use the target repository's instructions, proposal template, and docs/agents/code-host.md binding when present. Their required content and rendering format take precedence over the default template below. Render diagrams and code in the provider-supported format.
For a multi-repository delivery, describe this proposal's repository-specific change and evidence. Link related proposals and explain cross-repository dependencies or required rollout order. Distinguish repository validation from bundle validation; claim a bundle result only when supplied evidence covers the exact participating revisions.
Use the applicable canonical domain vocabulary. Follow configured Domain Orientation through docs/agents/domain.md when present. Otherwise read the relevant CONTEXT.md through CONTEXT-MAP.md, or the root CONTEXT.md. Use the repository's language when no domain document exists.
Use this default template when the repository supplies none:
## Summary
<brief description of the problem and resulting behavior; a visual when useful>
## Evidence
- **Before:** <screenshot/output/failing test run>
**After:** <screenshot/output/passing test run>
## Merge risk
**Door:** <one-way or two-way>
<optional: description>
**Affected scope:** <consumers, data, or workflows affected>
<optional: potential ramifications of merge>Sections
Keep prose brief and detail proportional to the change.
Summary
Lead with the problem and resulting behavior. Use a visual when it makes the change easier to assess. Choose the smallest view that explains it.
- Show logic or an algorithm as pseudocode:
on(save)
if content is unchanged
return cached result
write new content
return fresh result- Show runtime control flow as a call tree:
submitForm
createSession
persistPrompt
launchAgent
navigateToSession- Show UI structure as a component tree, including state and module boundaries that matter:
<SessionPage> (apps/example/src/routes/session.tsx)
useSessionEvents()
<SessionToolbar>
<RunSkillButton> (packages/ui)- Show file responsibility or a broad refactor as a shallow file tree:
src/
├── commands/ # parses user actions
├── sessions/ # owns session state
└── transport/ # sends API requests- Show component interaction, control flow, or data flow with Mermaid:
sequenceDiagram
participant User
participant UI
participant Daemon
User->>UI: choose command
UI->>Daemon: send expanded prompt
Daemon-->>UI: stream result- Use
diffwhen the point is what changes and the surrounding shape already exists. Match the diff shape to the topic.
For a component change:
<SessionPage>
useSessionEvents()
<SessionToolbar>
+ <RunSkillButton />
<SessionTimeline>
+ <SkillResultCard />For a file-layout change:
src/
├── commands/
+│ └── show-me.ts # expands the slash command
├── sessions/
-└── transport.ts
+└── transport/
+ ├── client.ts
+ └── stream.tsFor a call-tree or call-stack change:
submitForm
createSession
persistPrompt
+ expandSkillMention
launchAgent
- navigateToSession
+ navigateToSession
+ subscribeToEventsFor a state or control-flow change:
on(save)
- write content
+ if content is unchanged
+ return cached result
+ write new content
+ invalidate cache- Show the whole block when most of it is new, when omitted context would hide ownership or order, or when the user needs a copyable target shape:
function expandSkill(command: string): string {
const skillName = command.slice(1);
return `use the ${skillName} skill`;
}Guidance
Place each visual next to the short text it supports. Keep only the calls, files, props, states, and boundaries needed to answer the user's current question or the options to resolve the current discussion point.
You may use one of these, you may use several, it is unlikely you will use all of them. Use your judgement and don't overwhelm the user.
Evidence
Use supplied validation evidence bound to the described revision. Show before and after when both were actually observed. For visual changes, use screenshots when available. For execution evidence, name the actual command, result, and relevant limitation. State missing evidence explicitly instead of inventing a failing run or presenting pseudocode as execution output.
Merge risk
Describe whether it's a one-way or two-way door. You can walk back through two-way doors, but not one-way doors. A PR that is cheap to roll back is lower risk. Changes that involve destructive actions or hard-to-reverse decisions are one-way doors.
The blast radius is the potential impact or scope of the changes introduced by this PR. Consider all possibilities. Examples are layout shift, breakages for consumers, mobile responsiveness, etc.
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.
