Instructions for a compact notation for code changes and findings with severity and operation markers. Verify the installed parser and round-trip behavior before using it as a report format. Not for JSON report compaction or general content compression.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
1 rule. About 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈1
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
- Distinctive: line 22
Trigger: When generating diffs, fix reports, or audit findings.
≈ “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.

Package scope and prerequisites
This catalog ships instructions, not the executable runtime. Python modules, scripts, local services and optional tools named below must be installed separately from the upstream project. Check their availability before running commands; if they are missing, explain the prerequisite instead of claiming execution or results. The host agent may use model tokens while following these instructions.
When NOT to use
- The payload is a structured report object — use ultra_compact.
- The payload is free text, a log or code — use universal_compressor. Compact agent-native diff format for token-efficient code change descriptions.
Trigger: When generating diffs, fix reports, or audit findings.
Format: !!+f:file.py:42:symbol:detail
- Severity: !! (crit), ! (err), ~ (warn), . (info)
- Ops: +f (fix), -f (skip), +d (dead), +s (secret), +p (dup), +c (complex)
Module: skills/diff_language
Measurement: compare actual encoded sizes and verify the installed parser round-trip; no fixed reduction is established here. Roundtrip: lossless parse + serialize
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

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.
