Power Agent Creator

Overview

This skill provides everything needed to create powerful AI agents comparable to Claude Code. It includes:

1. Battle-tested System Prompt - A masterpiece prompt refined through millions of dollars of evaluation
2. Production-ready Tools - Comprehensive toolset for file ops, search, execution, and task management
3. The Agent Loop - The same simple pattern used by the most powerful agents

Core Philosophy

"The main agent is just a loop. The session memory is just a list of messages. It is enough to build the most powerful agent in the world. PERIOD!"

CRITICAL: Do NOT modify the system prompts or tool descriptions. They are masterpieces refined through extensive evaluation.

The Customization Secret

To create ANY kind of agent, you only need to add ONE HumanMessage after the SystemMessage:

from langchain_core.messages import SystemMessage, HumanMessage
from prompts import coding_agent_prompt

messages = [
    SystemMessage(content=coding_agent_prompt()),
    HumanMessage(content="""You are now specialized as a [ROLE].

Your additional capabilities:
- [CAPABILITY 1]
- [CAPABILITY 2]

Your constraints:
- [CONSTRAINT 1]
- [CONSTRAINT 2]

Focus on: [SPECIFIC DOMAIN]"""),
]

Quick Start: Create a Specialized Agent

Step 1: Initialize with Base System Prompt

from langchain.chat_models import init_chat_model
from langchain_core.messages import SystemMessage, HumanMessage
from dotenv import load_dotenv
load_dotenv()

# Import the masterpiece system prompt - DO NOT MODIFY
from references.prompts import coding_agent_prompt

# Initialize any LLM
llm = init_chat_model("grok-code-fast-1")  # or gpt-4.1, grok-code-fast-1

# Start with base system prompt
messages = [SystemMessage(content=coding_agent_prompt())]

Step 2: Add Specialization Message

# Add ONE HumanMessage to specialize the agent
specialization = HumanMessage(content="""You are now a specialized DevOps Agent.

Additional expertise:
- Docker and Kubernetes configurations
- CI/CD pipeline management
- Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Ansible)
- Cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure)

When working on tasks:
1. Always check existing infrastructure code first
2. Follow GitOps principles
3. Prefer declarative over imperative approaches
4. Document all changes in infrastructure comments""")

messages.append(specialization)

Step 3: Bind Tools and Create Agent

# Import production-ready tools - DO NOT MODIFY THEIR DOCSTRINGS
from references.tools import (
    read_file, write_file, edit_file, list_files,  # File operations
    glob_files, grep_files,                         # Search tools
    bash, get_bash_output, todo_write,              # Execution & task management
)

# Bind tools to LLM
tools = [read_file, write_file, edit_file, list_files,
         glob_files, grep_files, bash, get_bash_output, todo_write]
llm_with_tools = llm.bind_tools(tools)

Step 4: Run the Agent Loop

from langchain_core.messages import ToolMessage

def run_agent(user_input: str):
    messages.append(HumanMessage(content=user_input))

    response = llm_with_tools.invoke(messages)
    messages.append(response)

    # Tool execution loop
    while hasattr(response, "tool_calls") and response.tool_calls:
        for tool_call in response.tool_calls:
            tool_name = tool_call["name"]
            tool_args = tool_call["args"]
            tool_id = tool_call["id"]

            # Execute tool (map name to function)
            tools_map = {t.name: t for t in tools}
            result = tools_map[tool_name].invoke(tool_args)

            messages.append(ToolMessage(content=str(result), tool_call_id=tool_id))

        response = llm_with_tools.invoke(messages)
        messages.append(response)

    return response.content
