What it does

Agentify is an agent skill from tokencanopy/e2a. Beta — Deploy the autonomous-repo feedback loop into a GitHub repo. Scaffolds the lane workflows, the runtime skill, and one config file as a reviewed PR, then prints the one-time identity/secret setup checklist. Turns a repo into one that triages incoming feedback into issues and prepares human-gated fix PRs. Use when someone wants to make a repo self-managing / "agentify" it / install the feedback loop.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 75 other files, including reference files (for example `agentify-render.sh`, `examples/e2a/agentify-fix-verify-setup.sh` and `examples/e2a/autonomous-repo.config.yml`).

It sits in Backend & APIs, covering Project scaffolding and Transactional email. It works with GitHub. The repository describes itself as: Open-source email API for applications and AI agents. Managed hosting at e2a.dev, or self-host with Docker. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Someone wants to make a repo self-managing / agentify it / install the feedback loop
  • Tasks that involve Project scaffolding
  • Tasks that involve Transactional email

Example prompts

  • “agentify”
  • “/agentify”

Requirements

  • Node.js
  • A Bash shell
  • A credential in CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN
  • A credential in ANTHROPIC_API_KEY

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 776fe2c. 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 (Shell and JavaScript, from the files we listed), 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 these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN
    • ANTHROPIC_API_KEY
    • E2A_API_KEY
    • AUTOREPO_APP_PRIVATE_KEY

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Agentify loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs, and up to ~4.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 104 tokens; SKILL.md has 602 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~104
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.4k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~4.3k

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.

Beta — Deploy the autonomous-repo feedback loop into a GitHub repo. Scaffolds the lane workflows, the runtime skill, and one config file as a reviewed PR, then prints the one-time identity/secret setup checklist. Turns a repo into one that triages incoming feedback into issues and prepares human-gated fix PRs. Use when someone wants to make a repo self-managing / "agentify" it / install the feedback loop.

agentify — deploy the autonomous-repo feedback loop

Beta. This skill is under active development; the setup flow may change and a lower-friction "express" onboarding is being explored.

/agentify installs the framework into a target repo: feedback in → triaged GitHub issue → human-gated fix PR → filer notified. It bundles the framework as templates, so installing this plugin is grabbing the framework. The install lands as a PR the repo owner reviews and merges — the install itself goes through the same human gate the framework runs on.

Where the tooling lives. The scaffolder and templates ship in this skill's own directory, next to this SKILL.md — agentify-render.sh, templates/, references/. Substitute that absolute path for $AGENTIFY_DIR below; the scaffolder resolves its own resources, so any working directory works.

v0 scope. The full loop ships: triage/intake (email → triaged issue), comms (filer acks + the fix-gate approval email + verified-reply routing), fix + release (the coding agent's human-reviewed PR + the merge→shipped callback), and this deploy flow. The mechanical render is automated (agentify-render.sh, with a _selftest); the Q&A and the one-time identity/secret setup stay guided. An update mode (re-render preserving the adopter's config tweaks) is the natural follow-on — the render is already idempotent.

What gets scaffolded into the target repo

from $AGENTIFY_DIR/templates/to the target repo
autonomous-repo.config.yml.tmplautonomous-repo.config.yml (the only file the adopter owns)
runtime-skill/**.claude/skills/autonomous-repo/**
scripts/*.sh (ticket_card.sh, comms_send.sh, released_markers.sh)scripts/*.sh
workflows/*.yml.tmpl.github/workflows/*.yml

Deploy procedure

  1. Detect. Read the target repo: its OWNER/REPO, primary language, test command, and CI — used to fill the fix-lane verify_setup_script and sensible defaults.
  2. Configure. Ask the adopter the config values and export them as the ANS_* env vars agentify-render.sh reads: ANS_PRODUCT_NAME, ANS_OWNER, ANS_REPO, ANS_MARKER, ANS_REVIEWER_LOGIN, ANS_BOT_LOGIN, ANS_SUPPORT_ADDRESS, ANS_FIX_GATE_MODE (hitl recommended), ANS_APPROVER_ADDRESS, ANS_VERIFY_SETUP_SCRIPT. (The bot login can be filled later from the checklist; secrets are never gathered here.)
  3. Render. Run "$AGENTIFY_DIR/agentify-render.sh" --to <target-repo-root>. It fills autonomous-repo.config.yml from the ANS_* answers (failing loudly on any unfilled placeholder) and scaffolds the runtime skill, the scripts, and the four workflows into their real paths (.claude/skills/autonomous-repo/, scripts/, .github/workflows/*.yml). Re-running updates the scaffolded code but PRESERVES an existing autonomous-repo.config.yml (your tuned always_hitl, the filled bot_login) — pass --force only to regenerate the config. Then tune the rendered config's always_hitl list for the product's sensitive surfaces, and sanity-check: scripts/*.sh _selftest all green and the config parses. Optional addons ($AGENTIFY_DIR/templates/addons/) — e.g. submit-feedback-mcp (a submit_feedback MCP tool that email-bridges into the support mailbox) — are opted in via ANS_ADDONS="<name> ..."; the render scaffolds each to tools/<name>/ and appends its setup to AGENTIFY-ADDON-SETUP.md. Addons are additive; the loop runs without them.
  4. Auto-do the safe parts. Create the labels from labels.* via gh (feedback, agent-fix, wontfix, feedback-ops, the status:* set).
  5. Hand off the rest (print, don't do — see references/setup-checklist.md): create the GitHub App (bot identity) and set github_app_login in config; create the e2a support@ agent + an agent-scoped API key; add the repo secrets (CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN or ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, E2A_API_KEY, AUTOREPO_APP_ID, AUTOREPO_APP_PRIVATE_KEY); enable Actions; set branch protection so the fix lane's PRs require review. Hand over the exact commands/links — never run the auth yourself.
  6. Open the install as a PR. Branch, commit the scaffolded files, open a PR titled "agentify: install the autonomous-repo feedback loop" that summarizes what each file does and links the setup checklist. Do not merge.

After merge + setup

The lanes activate themselves: each no-ops loudly until its secrets exist, then starts on the next cron tick. Flip the AUTOREPO_LANES_PAUSED repo variable to pause everything. Run the loop interactively any time with the autonomous-repo skill ("drain the triage queue").
