What it does

Agent Repo Init is an agent skill from study8677/repobrain. Bootstraps a new multi-agent repository from the RepoBrain template via initagentrepo. Supports quick scaffold and full runtime profile setup including MCP toggle, swarm preference, sandbox type, and optional git init. LLM configuration is handled later by rb-setup.

Its SKILL.md is about 290 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `tools.py`).

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Multi-agent orchestration. It works with Model Context Protocol and Git. The repository describes itself as: 🧠 RepoBrain (formerly Antigravity) — Give your repo a brain. ChatGPT for your codebase: works in Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Windsurf & more. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Multi-agent orchestration

Example prompts

  • “Use the agent-repo-init skill to bootstrap a new multi-agent repository from the RepoBrain template via initagentrepo”
  • “/agent-repo-init”

Requirements

  • Python 3

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ed8a5d0. 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

    Ships script files (Python), which the agent can run.

    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

Agent Repo Init loads about 288 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 72 tokens; SKILL.md has 93 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~72
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~288

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: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

    ck scaffold plus runtime profile setup (`.env`, mission, context profile, and init report).

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.

Agent Repo Init Skill

This skill bootstraps a new multi-agent repository from the RepoBrain template.

Usage

When asked to initialize a fresh repository from this template, call init_agent_repo.

Modes

  • quick: Fast clean scaffold.
  • full: Quick scaffold plus runtime profile setup (.env, mission, context profile, and init report).

Capabilities

  • init_agent_repo(project_name, destination_root=".", mode="quick", enable_mcp=False, enable_swarm=True, sandbox_runtime="local", init_git=False) -> dict

Notes

  • The destination is created as <destination_root>/<project_name>.
  • The destination must be outside the current template repository path.
  • For full mode, review .context/agent_runtime_profile.md after generation.
  • Run /rb-setup in the generated project to choose and write the LLM endpoint.
