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, 1 is distinctive, and 2 are very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 71 edited versions we read keep these.
1
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
- Very specific: line 44
Check vault/memory/ACTIVE_PRIORITIES.md to understand current mode and context
- Very specific: line 45
Check vault/memory/DELEGATION_TRACKER.md for related pending work
- Distinctive: line 50
Always recommend a model tier for the receiving agent based on task complexity.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 71 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
Delegation Brief Generator
Quickly create a structured brief for delegating work to a sub-agent. Uses the template from system/05_delegation_protocol.md.
Usage
/brief [task description]
What It Produces
## Brief: [Task Name]
**From:** the AIgent
**To:** [Recommended agent based on task type]
**Priority:** [P0/P1/P2 based on context]
**Date:** [Today]
### Objective
[One sentence derived from the task description]
### Context
[Relevant context pulled from vault — active priorities, related project notes, recent decisions]
### Deliverable
[Specific, verifiable output]
### Constraints
[Time, scope, dependencies inferred from context]
### Verification
[How to check the work is actually done]Behavior
- Parse the task description from the user's input
- Check
vault/memory/ACTIVE_PRIORITIES.mdto understand current mode and context - Check
vault/memory/DELEGATION_TRACKER.mdfor related pending work - Determine the right agent and priority level
- Draft the brief using the delegation protocol template
- Present to the principal for approval before sending
Always recommend a model tier for the receiving agent based on task complexity.
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.
