What it does
Create Agent is an agent skill from Apocrathia/home-assistant-config. Create a new agent persona under .agents/agents/. Use when the user says create agent, new agent, add a persona, or when a recurring delegation pattern needs its own subagent charter.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Building AI agents and Subagents. The repository describes itself as: Apocrathia's Home Assistant Configuration Files.
When your agent uses it
- The user says create agent
- A recurring delegation pattern needs its own subagent charter
Example prompts
- “/create-agent”
Requirements
- Python 3
Workflow steps
6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Name the persona. Use a role noun, not a verb phrase: debugger, not
- Write the frontmatter
- Write the body. Structure every persona the same way
- Keep it under 60 lines. A persona is a charter, not a manual. If it grows
- Update the routing table. Add the persona to the subagents rule
- Validate. Run check_links.py on the new file if it contains links
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e28308a. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
python3
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Create Agent loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 49 tokens; SKILL.md has 398 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 398 words (~1,070 tokens).
“Create a sub-agent persona in .agents/agents/ so the parent can delegate a recurring role by name (/name) instead of hand-writing cold-start prompts each time.”
- name
- create-agent
- disable-model-invocation
