Builder Agent Scaffold
Use this skill when the task is to create a new agent and the caller needs a clear split between strategy wiring, tools, and docs.
Workflow
- Identify the agent type, strategy, plugins, skills, and runtime guardrails.
- Generate the module with explicit timeouts, retry posture, tool boundaries, and signal routes.
- Add tests for the core command path, error handling, and deterministic local fixtures.
- Capture the follow-up work needed in the workbench: examples, ecosystem notes, and migration guidance.
Package Boundary
- Package repo: agent module, local fixtures, tests, and release notes.
- Workbench repo: ecosystem page narrative, example/demo surface, and contributor docs.
Deliverables
- agent module scaffold
- runtime/test checklist
- workbench publishing checklist
