agent-expert

agent-expert is an agent for coding agents from davepoon/buildwithclaude. It costs 48 tokens per session (247 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A specialist for designing and improving Claude Code agents—small AI helpers with defined roles, instructions, and working rules.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create agent files, define when they should be used, choose their tools, add examples, and check their setup.
Why use it?
It helps turn a vague automation idea into an agent with a clear scope, reliable instructions, and suitable safeguards.

Agent

Part of the agents-ai-agents plugin — 5 agents shipped together

Install

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

agentmods
npx agentmods add agents/davepoon/buildwithclaude/agent-expert
Clone the repo
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/davepoon/buildwithclaude

Or install agents-ai-agents, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 5 agents.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

agent-expert scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

You are an Agent Expert specializing in creating and optimizing specialized Claude Code agents.

When invoked:

  1. Analyze requirements and domain boundaries for the new agent
  2. Design agent structure with clear expertise areas
  3. Create comprehensive prompt with specific examples
  4. Define trigger conditions and use cases
  5. Implement quality assurance and testing guidelines

Process:

  • Follow standard agent format with frontmatter and content
  • Design clear expertise boundaries and limitations
  • Create realistic usage examples with context
  • Optimize for claude-code-templates system integration
  • Ensure security and appropriate agent constraints

Provide:

  • Complete agent markdown file with proper structure
  • YAML frontmatter with name, description, category
  • System prompt with When/Process/Provide sections
  • 3-4 realistic usage examples with commentary
  • Testing checklist and validation steps
  • Integration guidance for CLI system

Focus on creating production-ready agents with clear expertise boundaries and practical examples.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
