archagent-deploy-agent

archagent-deploy-agent is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ArchAstro/archagents. It costs 73 tokens per session (941 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of deploy-agent, MIT.

A deployment guide for turning an ArchAstro agent configuration into a running agent in a conversation thread. ArchAstro is the agent platform used by the guide, and YAML is a configuration-file format.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to deploy a new configuration-driven agent, redeploy an existing template, or connect to an agent that is already running.
Why use it?
It helps determine whether an agent already exists, whether its configuration must be prepared first, and which deployment path to follow.

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

archagent-deploy-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 3d 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

86% identical to deploy-agent — 6 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 — 113 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

ArchAstro Agent Deployment

Deploy an agent from a YAML template and get it running in a thread.

This skill assumes the ArchAgent CLI is already installed and authenticated. Install or upgrade archagent if missing, and run archagent auth login <email> if not authenticated.

Always Start with State

Every invocation must begin by understanding what already exists:

archagent auth status
archagent list agents

If the user is working from a local repo, also inspect whether a configs/ directory already exists. Determine whether they want to:

  • deploy a new config-driven agent,
  • redeploy an existing template,
  • or work with an existing running agent.

Routing

Local config directory not initialized

If the user has config files but no configs/ directory set up, route to the manage-configs skill first. That skill owns local config management.

User wants to deploy a new agent

Use the config-driven golden path. Do not skip straight to create agent.

  1. Deploy configs first:

    archagent deploy configs
    

    This pushes Script and AgentTemplate configs to the server. For config-driven agents, this should happen before provisioning the agent itself.

  2. Deploy the agent from the template file:

    archagent deploy agent <yaml-file>
    

    This creates the full agent stack in one step: app config, agent record, routines, and installations. Note the agent ID (agi_...) from the output.

    Important: Always use deploy agent, not create agent. The create agent command only creates the agent record without provisioning routines or installations.

  3. Verify the deployment:

    archagent list agents
    
  4. Offer next steps: ask if the user wants to add the agent to a thread and start chatting. If yes, create a thread with members and hand off to the chat skill.

User needs help creating or editing the config files first

Route to the author-agent skill before deploying. That skill owns:

  • AgentTemplate and Script config creation
  • archagent describe configsample
  • archagent describe scriptdocs
  • routine scheduling shape
  • env-var scope guidance

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.
