Tactic for systematically extracting axes of variation from literature — identify how practitioners compare approaches.

The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

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

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈2

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 0

    Very specific

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

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Distinctive:

    Comparison reveals axes: When authors say "method A is X while method B is Y", X-Y is likely a dimension.

    line 20
  2. Distinctive:

    Independence test: If changing one axis always changes another, they're not independent.

    line 23

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill 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.

Axis Extraction

Systematically extract axes of variation from literature. Look for how authors compare methods, what trade-offs they discuss, what design choices they highlight.

Available SOPs

  • dimension-page-creation — create pages for identified dimensions
  • axis-validation — verify axes are independent and meaningful
  • wiki-search — check for existing dimension coverage

Guiding Principles

  • Comparison reveals axes. When authors say "method A is X while method B is Y", X-Y is likely a dimension.
  • Trade-offs are dimensions. "You can have speed or accuracy" reveals the speed-accuracy dimension.
  • Taxonomies are pre-built axes. Existing classifications in the field are validated dimensions.
  • Independence test. If changing one axis always changes another, they're not independent.

Minimum Yield

<HARD-GATE> ≥2 candidate axes identified per invocation with independence assessment. </HARD-GATE>

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.
