Where files are headingNew AGENTS.md files have more rules about keeping secrets out of the code, and fewer about code style.
Of the AGENTS.md files we read, the 31,774 first seen in the last six months, against the older ones: the kind of rule that gained most share, and the kind that lost most. About files like this in general, not this one, and an estimate, since a kind is a pattern in the words.

The file
We split this AGENTS.md into the rules it gives an agent
3 rules. About 1 is common, 1 is distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.

This author's own choices. Worth a look.

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

- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 4
Prefer small, focused skills with clear triggers and explicit safety boundaries.
- Very specific: line 7
Never remove attribution or license notices from third-party material.

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 40,246 AGENTS.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.

Agent guidance for this repository
- This repository is a library of portable Agent Skills. Canonical skill sources live in
skills/<name>/SKILL.md. - Prefer small, focused skills with clear triggers and explicit safety boundaries.
- Validate changes with
python scripts/validate_skills.py. - The scripts use the Python standard library; do not add dependencies without a clear need.
- Never remove attribution or license notices from third-party material. New AgentFieldkit content should be independently written.
- Do not execute external side effects such as publishing, deployment, destructive migration, or secret transmission without explicit user authorization.

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.
