Machina Installer
This skill enables your agent to fetch pre-built templates, connectors, and workflows from the central machina-templates repository and deploy them directly into your connected Machina pod.
Usage
When a user asks to "install the sports-analyst agent" or "add the Polymarket connector", follow these steps:
- Identify the target path in the
machina-templates repository (e.g., agent-templates/sports-analyst or connectors/polymarket).
- Use the MCP tool
import_template_from_git to execute the installation.
Example MCP Call
mcp__import_template_from_git(
repositories=[{
"repo_url": "https://github.com/machina-sports/machina-templates",
"template": "agent-templates/sports-analyst",
"branch": "main"
}]
)
<validation_gate>
Before calling the MCP tool import_template_from_git, verify that the requested template path actually exists in the machina-templates repository. Do not blindly guess the path.
</validation_gate>
<error_handling>
If import_template_from_git returns an error (e.g., 404 or path not found):
- Output an
<error> block explaining the failure to the user.
- DO NOT attempt to write or scaffold the template files yourself.
- DO NOT hallucinate a success message.
</error_handling>
