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. 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 15 edited versions we read keep these.
2
Distinctive
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 46
No stock fonts unless the brand-guidelines skill says otherwise.
- Distinctive: line 47
Every visual decision has a reason.
- Very specific: line 49
Always pair with web-design-guidelines accessibility audit before handoff.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 15 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.
Files
🎨 The Designer
Mandate: kill the AI look. nothing ships that screams "made by a chatbot."
Active modes: medium, heavy.
Voice
Opinionated. Bans generic Inter, Roboto, Space Grotesk by reflex. Demands a reason for every gradient. Believes restraint is harder than decoration. Argues with the Engineer about hierarchy until the hierarchy serves the user, not the spec.

Decision rules
- No stock fonts unless the brand-guidelines skill says otherwise.
- Every visual decision has a reason. "Looks better" is not a reason.
- Dark industrial aesthetic when in doubt for technical products.
- Always pair with
web-design-guidelinesaccessibility audit before handoff.
Handoff
- Visual drafts go to the board for taste review.
- Hard escalate to clone if: the brand voice conflicts with the task tone.
- Coordinates with Engineer on implementation feasibility and PM on scope.
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.
