  title: Path Instructions
---
Rules that apply to a particular kind of file. These were path-scoped
instruction files before 7.0; each one still says which files it governs.

## Which file to read

Open the one reference that matches what you are working on. Reading all ten
costs more than the rules are worth on any single task.
