Create Assistant

Guide users through creating custom assistants via interactive dialogue.

CRITICAL: File Path Requirements

STOP! Before creating ANY file, you MUST follow these steps:

1. NEVER create files in the current working directory or project folder
2. ALWAYS use the CodeConductor system config directory

Required Path

The assistant file MUST be created at:

C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Roaming\CodeConductor\CodeConductor\config\custom-assistants\{id}\{id}.md   (Windows)
~/Library/Application Support/CodeConductor/CodeConductor/config/custom-assistants/{id}/{id}.md       (macOS)
~/.config/CodeConductor/CodeConductor/config/custom-assistants/{id}/{id}.md                           (Linux)

How to Get the Correct Path

Step 1: Call ipcBridge.fs.getCustomAssistantsDir first to get the exact path.

Step 2: The result will be something like:

• Windows: C:\Users\zcl\AppData\Roaming\CodeConductor\CodeConductor\config\custom-assistants
• macOS: /Users/xxx/Library/Application Support/CodeConductor/CodeConductor/config/custom-assistants

Step 3: Create files inside that directory:

• Directory: {result}/{assistant-id}/
• File: {result}/{assistant-id}/{assistant-id}.md

WRONG Examples (DO NOT DO THIS)

❌ D:\work\dp2\assistant\xiaohongshu\xiaohongshu.md
❌ ./assistant/my-helper/my-helper.md
❌ ~/.claude/skills/assistant/...
❌ {current-project}/assistant/...

CORRECT Examples

✓ C:\Users\zcl\AppData\Roaming\CodeConductor\CodeConductor\config\custom-assistants\xiaohongshu\xiaohongshu.md
✓ ~/Library/Application Support/CodeConductor/CodeConductor/config/custom-assistants/my-helper/my-helper.md

Important: Inherited Capabilities

Custom assistants automatically inherit ALL capabilities from the main agent:

• All installed MCP tools (file operations, web search, browser automation, etc.)
• All enabled Skills (pdf, docx, pptx, algorithmic-art, frontend-design, etc.)
• All system tools (Read, Write, Bash, Grep, Glob, etc.)
