Overview
A provider-neutral Agent Skill, installed into Codex or Claude Code skill directories, that activates on agent-architecture questions. It supplies a SKILL.md and a references/ set covering MVP blueprints, tool permissions, context and compaction, evals, security, durable runtimes and voice agents, with worked example dialogues. It is documentation and guidance, not a runtime or library.
Who it is for: Engineers designing or auditing agent harnesses with Codex or Claude Code
Strengths
- Installs via `npx skills add` or a plain git clone into the skills directory
- Reference files split by topic: loop, permissions, memory, evals, security, voice
- Examples show concrete controls like approval gates, loop budgets and typed narrow tools
- Not limited to coding agents; covers support, research, ops and other domains
Weaknesses
- Guidance only; no runnable harness, code or templates to fork
- Many advanced profiles are marked post-MVP or experimental, adding reading overhead
- Self-update checks upstream main on each task, adding a network dependency
- No releases or version tags; installs track main
What it needs
- no GPU
- Needs Codex or Claude Code (or another skills-compatible agent), Node.js/npx (for the skills installer)
- Models: provider-neutral
