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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00078 | $0.05861 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00039 | $0.02930 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00016 | $0.01172 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00586 |
Grade A, and why
kit-copilot-create-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 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 363 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Create a Custom Agent
What This Skill Does
Creates a properly structured custom agent file (.agent.md) for GitHub Copilot in VS Code following the custom agents documentation. The generated agent defines a persona — a specialized AI identity with its own philosophy, problem-solving approach, tool access, skill composition, and optionally subagent orchestration capabilities.
A custom agent is NOT a task template or a project configuration. It is the WHO and HOW of the AI — the role it plays, the way it thinks, and how it composes with other agents and skills.
Key Concepts: Agent vs Skill vs Prompt vs Instructions
Understanding the separation of concerns is critical for creating effective agents. Each customization mechanism has a distinct purpose:
| Component | Defines | Analogy | File Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| Custom Agent | WHO the AI is and HOW it behaves | The employee's role, personality, and work style | .agent.md |
| Agent Skill | Reusable CAPABILITY or multi-step workflow | A specialized training module the employee can use | SKILL.md in a skill directory |
| Prompt File | WHAT specific task to perform | A work order or task assignment | .prompt.md |
| Custom Instructions | WHERE — project context and standards | The company handbook | .instructions.md |
What ships with it
5 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

kit-copilot-create-agent is a skill published in the GitHub repository ikcode-dev/copilot-kit (29 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 78 tokens to every session and 5,861 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
Other skills, from other repositories
weekly-digests
Generate a serial week-by-week narrative digest of a project's full claude-mem timeline. Splits the timeline into per-ISO-week files, then runs one consecutive subagent per week — each receiving the prior week's carry-forward block — to produce one chapter per ISO week of data. Use when asked for "weekly digests"…
agentmail
Use when an agent needs AgentMail CLI email inboxes.
skill-template
Template for creating new Agent Skills for context engineering. Use this template when adding new skills to the collection.
Agent Development
This skill should be used when the user asks to "create an agent", "add an agent", "write a subagent", "agent frontmatter", "when to use description", "agent examples", "agent tools", "agent colors", "autonomous agent", or needs guidance on agent structure, system prompts, triggering conditions, or agent development…
skill-creator
Scaffold a new yoyo skill when a human or community issue asks for one ("add a skill for X", "create a skill that does Y"). Generates correct frontmatter, validates, writes to disk.
subagent-delegation
Canonical protocol for delegating GSD work to native Antigravity subagents — when to delegate, how to invoke, workspace isolation modes, and the inline fallback for older IDE versions.
