Create a new Claude Code agent file (review or team type) following the official sub-agent schema and token-efficiency budgets. Use when the user wants to add a new review agent, detect a new category of code issue, create a team agent persona, or says things like "add an agent for X", "create a reviewer for Y", "new team agent for Z". Also use when given a URL to a coding standard that should become a review agent.

Agent Add

Role: implementation.

Implementation constraints

  1. Follow the official sub-agent schema and token budgets.
  2. Delegate the build to the agent-create skill; do not improvise structure.
  3. Be concise. Report the created agent file, no narration.

Steps

1. Parse arguments

Capture the agent name/spec or URL from $ARGUMENTS.

2. Delegate

Invoke the agent-create skill with the arguments.

3. Report

Output the created file path.

Apply the guidelines defined in skills/agent-create/SKILL.md to the current task. Read the skill file and follow its steps exactly.

If $ARGUMENTS starts with http:// or https://, fetch the URL with WebFetch first and extract the relevant guidance, then use that content as the agent description.

Pass these flags through to the skill as context:

  • --name <name> → set agent name (skips name prompt)
  • --type review|team → set agent type (skips type prompt)
  • --effort low|medium|high → sets the agent's effort band (invalid values rejected; legacy tokens mapped, e.g. frontier → high)
  • --context diff-only|full-file|project-structure → sets Context needs: field
  • --lang <exts> → adds language scope declaration to the body
  • --dry → show generated content without writing to disk or updating registry

Apply this skill to: $ARGUMENTS
