Propose a personalized team of specialized agents based on the user's profile, goals, and how they actually work.

  • Works in 5 steps: Read the profile → Maker proposes the team → The Checker validates (bounded) → …
  • The user says build my team

What it does

Build Team is an agent skill from kbanc85/claudia. Propose a personalized team of specialized agents based on the user's profile, goals, and how they actually work. Runs the proposal through an independent Checker, gates on the user's approval, and applies with rollback. Use when the user says "build my team", "set up my agents", "what agents should I have", "design my team", "/build-team", or asks Claudia to tailor her team to their work. See also: hire-agent for proactive single-agent suggestions; structure-generator for folder scaffolding; capability-suggester…

Its SKILL.md is about 2.2k 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 DevOps & Cloud, covering Project scaffolding. The repository describes itself as: Terminal-based AI chief of staff. Remembers relationships, tracks commitments, helps you think strategically. Runs on Claude Code.

When your agent uses it

  • The user says build my team
  • Set up my agents
  • What agents should I have
  • Asks Claudia to tailor her team to their work

Example prompts

  • “s approval, and applies with rollback. Use when the user says”
  • “set up my agents”
  • “what agents should I have”
  • “/build-team”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Read the profile
  2. Maker proposes the team
  3. The Checker validates (bounded)
  4. Status file + approval gate
  5. Apply and rollback (only after explicit approval)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit eb63cec. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    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

Build Team loads about 2.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 141 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,163 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~141
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.2k

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

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,163 words (~2,244 tokens).

“The user-invoked counterpart to hire-agent. Where hire-agent suggests one agent reactively when it spots a repeated pattern, build-team looks at the whole picture (the user's profile, judgment rules, and real task history) and proposes a tailored team in one pass…”
