The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

9 rules. 0 are common, 7 are distinctive, and 2 are very specific to this project.

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 93 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 7

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 2

    Very specific

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

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Distinctive:

    Use this exact structure:

    line 12
  2. Very specific:

    Run git log --oneline <last-tag>..HEAD to get commits since last release

    line 53
  3. Distinctive:

    Write user-facing descriptions (not commit messages)

    line 55
  4. Distinctive:

    Add version header with date

    line 56
  5. Distinctive:

    Update comparison links at bottom

    line 57
  6. Distinctive:

    Write for end users, not developers

    line 72
  7. Distinctive:

    Use present tense ("Add" not "Added")

    line 73
  8. Very specific:

    Keep [Unreleased] section for ongoing work

    line 76
  9. Distinctive:

    Remove empty sections before release

    line 77

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 93 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.

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