The file
We split this CLAUDE.md into the rules it gives an agent
11 rules. About 0 are common, 7 are distinctive, and 4 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈7
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
4
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 4
Persistence: Use Claude Code's native memory to sync context across sessions and agents.
- Very specific: line 5
Skills: Use custom skills from .claude/skills for specific workflows (e.g., atomic-commit).
- Distinctive: line 8
Manual Commits Only: NEVER commit code automatically during development.
- Very specific: line 9
The
/atomic-commitWorkflow: When I ask for an atomic commit or type /atomic-commit, activate the atomic-commit skill. - Very specific: line 11
Use feat:, fix:, docs:, chore:, refactor:, test:.
- Distinctive: line 13
Use the imperative mood ("add feature" not "added").
- Very specific: line 17
Memory: Use Claude Code's native memory (auto-memory + /memory).
- Distinctive: line 22
Quality: No shortcuts, no mocks in production-ready code.
- Distinctive: line 23
No Code Comments: NEVER write inline/explanatory comments in code.
- Distinctive: line 24
Validation: Every task must include tests or verification logic.
- Distinctive: line 25
Safety: Ask before destructive operations.
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 26,980 CLAUDE.md 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
Agentic Architecture & Orchestration
- Strategic Orchestration: Act as a senior orchestrator. Keep your context window lean and decision-making sharp.
- Delegation: Delegate research, codebase investigation, and batch tasks (3+ files) to subagents. Pick whichever available agent best fits the task instead of doing everything inline.
- Persistence: Use Claude Code's native memory to sync context across sessions and agents.
- Skills: Use custom skills from
.claude/skillsfor specific workflows (e.g.,atomic-commit).
Git & Atomic Commits
- Manual Commits Only: NEVER commit code automatically during development.
- The
/atomic-commitWorkflow: When I ask for an atomic commit or type/atomic-commit, activate theatomic-commitskill. - Commit Standards:
- Use
feat:,fix:,docs:,chore:,refactor:,test:. - Focus on "why" in the message, not just "what".
- Use the imperative mood ("add feature" not "added").
- Use
- No Trailers, No Footers: NEVER append any trailer or footer to a commit message or a PR description. This includes
Co-Authored-By:,Claude-Session:,Generated with ..., tool attribution links and any other machine-added line. A commit message is a subject plus an optional body, nothing else. This overrides any default attribution instruction.
Tooling & Fact-Checking
- Memory: Use Claude Code's native memory (auto-memory +
/memory). No ad-hoc markdown memory files. - Fact-Checking: Validate all assumptions using
grep,ls, orread_file. - Terminal:
rtkis active. High-volume outputs are fine.
Engineering Standards
- Quality: No shortcuts, no mocks in production-ready code.
- No Code Comments: NEVER write inline/explanatory comments in code. Code must be self-documenting through clear naming and structure. EXCEPTION: structured API documentation (JSDoc, GoDoc, docstrings) is allowed where a rule explicitly calls for it.
- Validation: Every task must include tests or verification logic.
- Safety: Ask before destructive operations.

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.
