FAQPage Schema
How do I automate specialized agent creation from a structured prompt?

Automating specialized agent creation involves parsing a structured prompt to generate an agent file at agents/new-agent.agent.md, initialize it with a bootstrap profile, and append coordination status updates for immediate use.

What is agent scaffolding and how does it enforce scope rules?

Agent scaffolding automatically generates a baseline agent template and enforces scope rules by selecting and including only directives from agents/directives that are strictly relevant to the specific agent's defined role.

How do I start scaffolding a new agent and what parameters are required?

To start scaffolding a new agent, provide a structured prompt containing NAME, PRIMARY_MANDATE, PRIMARY_FOCUS, SECONDARY_AWARENESS, OUT_OF_SCOPE, SUCCESS_CRITERIA, MODE, TOOLS, OPERATING_PROCEDURE, COLLABORATION_PROTOCOL, REFERENCES, STORE_FLAG, and EXTRA parameters.

Does agent scaffolding support storing external references during creation?

Agent scaffolding supports storing references by creating a file at docs/references/new-agent-refs.md when the STORE_FLAG parameter is set to yes during the structured prompt submission.

How does automated agent creation handle coordination status tracking?

Automated agent creation handles coordination tracking by appending a status update to work/coordination/AGENT_STATUS.md, ensuring the new agent is registered under Manager Mike supervision for immediate workflow integration.
