We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

15 rules. 0 are common, 11 are distinctive, and 4 are very specific to this project.

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 27 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 11

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 4

    Very specific

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

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 27 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.

Conventional Commit

Turn finished work into commits that can each be reverted without breaking the build or tests. Create the commits and stop there.

Method

Read every changed file's staged and unstaged diff before deciding what belongs together. Split independent changes, but keep code and the tests that cover it in one commit.

Before staging, scan both diffs for credentials, tokens, private keys, .env contents, and internal hostnames the repository does not already publish. Unstage and withhold any affected file, then report it.

Stage one commit by path and check git status for unintended staged changes. Do not use git add -A, git add ., or git commit -a; they can sweep unrelated work into the commit.

Commit, then read git show to confirm the contents and message. Repeat until every change the task produced is committed or reported as withheld. Leave unrelated work in the tree.

Message

Use Conventional Commits even if the repository's earlier history differs. Write the subject, body, and footers in English.

Use <type>(<scope>): <imperative description>, or omit the scope when none fits. Derive type and scope from the diff, not the ticket or branch name. Check git log --oneline -20 for the scope used in this area; do not invent one when none exists.

Add a body when the diff shows what changed but not why. Leave out a body that only restates the subject or lists files. Mark a breaking change with ! or a BREAKING CHANGE: footer only when an existing caller, consumer, or configuration needs a change on its side.

Boundary

Do not amend or rewrite an existing commit unless asked; add a new one. Let hooks run. Do not pass --no-verify or -n; fix a failing hook or report it.

Do not push, tag, or open a pull request as part of this skill. If the user also authorized one of those actions, follow its own workflow after committing.

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.
