SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

OpenCode users face friction in creating and configuring agents across projects. This skill provides a structured, reusable blueprint to create and configure OpenCode agents (primary and subagents), assign prompts, tools, permissions, and models, and manage templates across global and project scopes.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Agent creation and configuration: Create Markdown or JSON agent definitions with frontmatter and body instructions.
  • Templates and references: Reuse provided assets/templates and references/REFERENCE.md to standardize agent behavior.
  • Global vs project scope: Manage global and project-specific agent configurations via SKILL.md frontmatter and resources.
  • Permission and tool control: Configure tools, permission policies, and task orchestration to govern agent actions.
  • Templates for common roles: Use built-in templates like read-only reviewer, security auditor, docs writer, careful dev, etc.
  • Guidance and best practices: Step-by-step instructions for building and testing agents.

Quick Start

  • Review the skill's SKILL.md to understand the allowed agent definitions.
  • Place new agent definitions in .opencode/agents/NAME.md (or ~/.config/opencode/agents/NAME.md).
  • Reuse templates from assets/templates to bootstrap new agents.
