automation:auto-agent

automation:auto-agent is a command for Claude Code from monoes/monomind. It costs 12 tokens per session (503 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

An agent launcher that reads a task, chooses a suitable role such as coder, tester, or researcher, and starts the agent with a task and optional timeout.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to start coding, testing, research, architecture, analysis, or coordination agents and check their status.
Why use it?
It removes the need to decide manually which agent to start and how to structure work involving several roles.

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

automation:auto-agent 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 yesterday.

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

auto-agent

Automatically spawn agents based on task requirements.

Usage

npx monomind agent spawn [options]

Options

  • --type, -t <type> - Agent type: coder, tester, researcher, coordinator, architect, analyst
  • --name, -n <name> - Agent name
  • --task <description> - Task description
  • --timeout <ms> - Timeout in milliseconds
  • --auto-tools - Enable automatic tool selection

Examples

Spawn a coder agent for a task

npx monomind agent spawn --type coder --task "Build a REST API with authentication"

Spawn coordinator with auto tools

npx monomind agent spawn --type coordinator --auto-tools --task "Refactor codebase"

Check spawned agent status

npx monomind agent list
npx monomind agent status --id <agent-id>

How It Works

  1. Task Analysis — Parses task description and identifies required skills
  2. Agent Selection — Matches skills to agent type (coder, architect, tester, etc.)
  3. Topology Selection — Chooses swarm structure for multi-agent tasks
  4. Spawning — Creates agent with role, assigns subtasks, enables coordination

Agent Types

Type Best For
architect System design, architecture decisions
coder Implementation, code generation
tester Test creation, quality assurance
analyst Performance, optimization
researcher Documentation, best practices
coordinator Task management, progress tracking

Integration with Claude Code

// Spawn a single specialized agent
mcp__monomind__agent_spawn({
  type: "coder",
  name: "API Builder",
  task: "Build authentication system",
  capabilities: ["typescript", "rest-api"]
})

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.
