agent-creator

A procedure for creating agent modules for Agency Swarm version 1.0.0, a framework for organising AI agents and their tools. It defines the folders, files, agent setup, instructions, and configuration needed for an agency.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create an agency's agent folders and starter files, including agent definitions, instruction placeholders, tool directories, the main agency file, and dependency or environment templates.
Why use it?
It gives a project a consistent structure so agents, instructions, and tools can be developed and connected without missing required files. It also records the expected relationship with the other creation tasks.

Agent for Claude Code

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.

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-creator 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 2d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

94% identical to agent-creator — 51 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 181 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Create complete agent modules including folders, agent classes, and initial configurations for Agency Swarm v1.0.0 agencies.

Background

Agency Swarm v1.0.0 uses the OpenAI Agents SDK. Agents are instantiated directly (not subclassed). Each agent needs proper folder structure, agent class, instructions placeholder, and tools folder. All agencies require OpenAI API key.

Input

  • PRD path with agents, roles, and tool requirements
  • Agency Swarm docs location: ai_docs/agency-swarm/docs/
  • Communication flow pattern for the agency
  • Note: Working in parallel with instructions-writer, BEFORE tools-creator

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.
