Agent Base Template Generator

Use this skill when creating a standardized starting template for new agents.

When to Use

• You want consistent structure across many agents.
• You need repeatable defaults for tone, safety, and tool usage.
• You are onboarding teams to build agents quickly with fewer mistakes.

Template Generation Workflow

1. Capture agent purpose, audience, and boundaries.
2. Define required sections (role, goals, constraints, escalation, output format).
3. Add tool policy blocks (when to call tools, timeouts, retries, no-op conditions).
4. Add safety/compliance defaults (disallowed actions, sensitive data handling).
5. Add examples for successful and failing scenarios.
6. Add a test checklist and launch-readiness criteria.

Output

• Base template file content

• Required customization points

• Validation checklist for new agents

• Brief plan or checklist

• Key recommendations and caveats
