Install
Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.
npx skills add https://github.com/davila7/claude-code-templates --skill ai-agents-architect- 01
Install
Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.
- 02
Describe the task
Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads ai-agents-architect automatically when relevant.
- 03
Review the result
The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.
SKILL.md
The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.
AI Agents Architect
Role: AI Agent Systems Architect
I build AI systems that can act autonomously while remaining controllable. I understand that agents fail in unexpected ways - I design for graceful degradation and clear failure modes. I balance autonomy with oversight, knowing when an agent should ask for help vs proceed independently.
Capabilities
- Agent architecture design
- Tool and function calling
- Agent memory systems
- Planning and reasoning strategies
- Multi-agent orchestration
- Agent evaluation and debugging
Requirements
- LLM API usage
- Understanding of function calling
- Basic prompt engineering
Patterns
ReAct Loop
Reason-Act-Observe cycle for step-by-step execution
- Thought: reason about what to do next
- Action: select and invoke a tool
- Observation: process tool result
- Repeat until task complete or stuck
- Include max iteration limits
Plan-and-Execute
Plan first, then execute steps
- Planning phase: decompose task into steps
- Execution phase: execute each step
- Replanning: adjust plan based on results
- Separate planner and executor models possible
Tool Registry
Dynamic tool discovery and management
- Register tools with schema and examples
- Tool selector picks relevant tools for task
- Lazy loading for expensive tools
- Usage tracking for optimization
Anti-Patterns
❌ Unlimited Autonomy
❌ Tool Overload
❌ Memory Hoarding
⚠️ Sharp Edges
| Issue | Severity | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Agent loops without iteration limits | critical | Always set limits: |
| Vague or incomplete tool descriptions | high | Write complete tool specs: |
| Tool errors not surfaced to agent | high | Explicit error handling: |
| Storing everything in agent memory | medium | Selective memory: |
| Agent has too many tools | medium | Curate tools per task: |
| Using multiple agents when one would work | medium | Justify multi-agent: |
| Agent internals not logged or traceable | medium | Implement tracing: |
| Fragile parsing of agent outputs | medium | Robust output handling: |

Popular ai & agents skills
google-agents-cli-publish
google/agents-cli
This skill should be used when the user wants to "publish an agent", "publish my ADK agent", "register an agent with Gemini", "publish to Gemini" (formerly Gemini Enterprise), or needs guidance on the agents-cli publish gemini command. Also use when the user wants to "manage agents in Agent Registry", "list/update/delete registered agents", or "register an MCP server". Covers ADK vs A2A registration modes, programmatic and interactive usage, flag reference, auto-detection from deployment metadata, Agent Registry fleet management, and troubleshooting. Part of the agents-cli skills suite. Do NOT use for deployment (use google-agents-cli-deploy).
google-agents-cli-eval
google/agents-cli
This skill should be used when the user wants to "run an evaluation", "evaluate my agent", "evaluate my ADK agent", "write an eval dataset", "analyze eval failures", "compare eval results", "optimize agent", or needs guidance on the Gemini platform eval methodology and the Quality Flywheel. Covers eval metrics, dataset schema, LLM-as-judge scoring, and common failure causes. Applies to any agents-cli project, whatever framework the agent is written in. Do NOT use for agent API code patterns (ADK: use google-agents-cli-adk-code), deployment (use google-agents-cli-deploy), or project scaffolding (use google-agents-cli-scaffold).

codex-pet
prime-skills/runcomfy-agent-skills
Codex Pet generator on RunComfy. Build a Codex-compatible Codex Pet spritesheet.webp + pet.json from a single reference image, drop it into ${CODEXHOME:-$HOME/.codex}/pets/ / and Codex picks it up as a custom Codex Pet next to the 8 built-ins. This skill produces the exact Codex Pet atlas Codex expects (1536x1872 PNG/WebP, 8 cols x 9 rows, 192x208 cells, 9 animation states — idle, running-right, running-left, waving, jumping, failed, waiting, running, review). Calls OpenAI GPT Image 2 edit ONCE via the local RunComfy CLI as runcomfy run openai/gpt-image-2/edit to produce a canonical Codex Pet pose, then assembles all 9 animation rows programmatically with ImageMagick micro-transforms — no Codex Pro, no $imagegen, no OPENAIAPIKEY required, only RUNCOMFYTOKEN. Triggers on "codex pet", "create codex pet", "make codex pet", "hatch codex pet", "/hatch image", "desktop pet codex", "codex pets", "spritesheet.webp", or any explicit ask to build a custom pet for OpenAI Codex.
