The Problem

AI coding tools generate slop: unnecessary abstractions, wrapper classes that wrap nothing, useMemo on everything, try/catch around code that can't throw, AbstractFactoryProviderManager classes, and 500-line files that should be 50.

onerules generates rules that specifically target these failure modes — for every AI tool you use, tuned to your framework.

What Makes This Different

These aren't generic "follow best practices" rules. Every rule targets a specific AI slop pattern:

# Instead of: "Avoid unnecessary abstractions"
# You get:

- DO NOT over-abstract. No AbstractFactoryProviderManager. No BaseServiceInterface.
  If the class name needs 3+ words to describe what it does, it's doing too much
  or too little.

- DO NOT create interfaces/types for a single implementation. Interface `IUserService`
  with one class `UserService` is pointless indirection.

- A function that wraps another function without adding behavior is not an
  abstraction — it's noise. Delete it.

- DO NOT install `axios`. The Fetch API is built-in, cached by Next.js, and has
  extended options. `axios` adds 14KB for nothing.

Quick Start

# Install globally (recommended)
npm i -g @blackforge/onerules

# Run in any project
onerules

Or without installing:

npx --package=@blackforge/onerules onerules

No API keys. No config. Works offline.

10 AI Tools, One Command

Features

• Anti-slop rules — every rule targets a specific AI code generation failure mode, not generic advice
• 10 AI tools — generates the correct file format for each tool
• 18 frameworks — deep rules for Next.js, React, Vue, Nuxt, SvelteKit, Angular, Astro, Remix, Express, Fastify, Hono, FastAPI, Django, Flask, Rails, Gin, Fiber, Axum
• Zero-config — auto-detects stack from package.json, pyproject.toml, go.mod, Cargo.toml, or Gemfile
• No LLM required — deterministic, fast (<2s), works completely offline
• Safe by default — skips existing files unless you use --force

Supported Stacks

Languages: TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, Go, Rust, Ruby

Frameworks (with anti-slop rules): Next.js, React, Vue, Nuxt, SvelteKit, Angular, Astro, Remix, Express, Fastify, Hono, FastAPI, Django, Flask, Rails, Gin, Fiber, Axum

Tooling: pnpm, yarn, bun, npm, uv, poetry, pip, cargo, bundler | Vitest, Jest, Playwright, Cypress, pytest, RSpec | ESLint, Biome, Ruff, RuboCop | Prettier, dprint, Black

Commands

onerules                         # Generate for all 10 tools
onerules -t claude,cursor        # Generate for specific tools only
onerules --force                 # Overwrite existing files
onerules --dry-run               # Preview without writing
onerules -d ./my-project         # Specify project directory
onerules update                  # Re-detect and regenerate all files
onerules diff                    # Show what would be generated

Example Rules

Here's a taste of what gets generated for a Next.js + TypeScript project:

## Do Not

- DO NOT add `'use client'` to a component just because it receives props
  or renders conditionally. Server Components can do both.
- DO NOT use `useEffect(() => { fetch('/api/...') }, [])` for data loading.
  Use a Server Component with async/await.
- DO NOT create API routes for operations that should be Server Actions.
  If a client component needs to mutate data, use a server action.
- DO NOT install `axios`. The Fetch API is built-in, cached by Next.js,
  and has extended options.

## Coding Patterns

- Inline simple logic. A 3-line helper called once is worse than 3 lines
  at the call site.
- Three similar lines are better than a premature abstraction. Do not DRY
  code until a pattern has repeated 3+ times with identical structure.
- Use discriminated unions over class hierarchies.
  `type Shape = Circle | Square` over `abstract class Shape`.

FAQ

Does this replace my existing CLAUDE.md? No. By default, onerules skips files that already exist. Use --force to overwrite.

Does this call any AI APIs? No. Fully deterministic. Works offline. No API keys needed.

Can I customize the generated rules? Yes. Edit the generated files after running onerules. They're plain markdown.

How is this different from awesome-cursorrules or Karpathy's CLAUDE.md? Those are single files for one tool. onerules generates rules for 10 tools simultaneously, tuned to your specific framework, with anti-slop rules that target AI failure modes specifically.

Contributing

We welcome contributions! The easiest ways:

1. Improve rules — make the anti-slop rules sharper for any framework
2. Add a framework — create a fragment in src/templates/fragments/
3. Add a tool — create a generator in src/generate/

See CONTRIBUTING.md for details.
