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.
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 31,439 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.

3 rules. About 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.

≈ “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.

What this repo is
A portable agent skill implemented entirely as Markdown. The runtime artifact is SKILL.md: the agent reads its YAML frontmatter and editor prompt. There is no build step, and the repo should avoid wording that limits support to one or two harnesses.
Key files
SKILL.md— the skill itself. Portable YAML frontmatter (name,description,license,metadata.version) followed by the canonical, numbered pattern list with before/after examples. This is the source of truth.README.md— for humans: installation, usage, a summary table of the patterns, and a version history..claude-plugin/plugin.json— optional Claude Code plugin manifest..claude-plugin/marketplace.json— optional single-repo marketplace entry so/plugin marketplace add blader/humanizerworks.scripts/validate-package.py— dependency-free package and synchronization checks used locally and in CI.
The maintenance contract
SKILL.md and README.md must stay in sync. When you change behavior or content:
- Patterns: the skill currently defines 33 numbered patterns. If you add, remove, or renumber any, update the README pattern table, its "N Patterns Detected" heading, and every cross-reference in the same change. Keep numbering stable unless you are deliberately renumbering.
- Version:
SKILL.mdfrontmatter stores the version undermetadata.version,README.mdhas a "Version History" section, and.claude-plugin/plugin.jsonhas aversionfield. Bump them together so package metadata matches the skill. Keep the skill version undermetadata; a top-levelversionkey is not portable across Agent Skills hosts. (marketplace.jsonintentionally omits a version soplugin.jsonstays the package source of truth.) - Compatibility: keep install and usage language harness-neutral. The skill should work in any agent harness that can load Markdown skill instructions; Claude Code, OpenCode, Codex, and other harnesses are examples, not limits.
- Validation: run
python3 scripts/validate-package.py,npx skills add . --list, andclaude plugin validate .before publishing. - Non-obvious fixes: if you change the prompt to handle a tricky failure mode (a repeated mis-edit, an unexpected tone shift), add a short note to the README version history explaining what was fixed and why.
Editing SKILL.md
- Preserve valid YAML frontmatter (formatting and indentation).
- The prompt below the frontmatter is the product. Edit it like a careful instruction document, not code.
