2 things to look at

  • 17 days oldThe repository was created 17 days ago. New is not bad, but a brand new repository carrying a familiar-sounding name is the shape a typosquat arrives in, and there has been no time for anyone else to find a problem with it.
  • 0 stars0 stars. Stars are a popularity signal and not a quality one, but at this level it is likely that nobody has read this closely except its author, and you would be relying on your own review.

What its author says it does

Copied from the file, not written here

Use when designing or sharing a durable human-agent operating agreement: collaboration posture, memory and skill boundaries, correction capture, autonomy budgets, sanitization, and verification standards.

The file declares its own license as MIT. That is the author’s claim about this one file, and it is not the same thing as the license GitHub reports for the repository, which is listed with the other numbers below.

Working With an Agent

Separate the system into working agreement, durable memory, reusable skills, task context, tools, artifacts, approvals, and verification. Keep the always-on agreement compact. Save procedures as skills and temporary progress as artifacts, not memory.

When sharing the system publicly, remove credentials, codewords, contact details, family information, employer specifics, hostnames, IPs, service paths, and security topology. Reveal the lesson, not the private substrate.

Treat corrections as routing decisions: universal behavior → agreement; durable fact → memory; reusable method → skill; current exception → task context.
