Automated safety checks
This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.
Declares what it does: passed
SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.
SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.
No undeclared network calls: passed
Makes no network calls.
Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.
No obfuscated payloads: passed
No encoded or obfuscated payloads.
No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.
No credential access: passed
Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.
Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.
No pipe-to-shell installers: passed
No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.
No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

About this skill
What it does
The create-subagent skill allows an AI agent to dynamically generate and manage new, specialized sub-agents. These sub-agents can be assigned specific tasks or roles within a larger workflow, enabling the parent agent to handle more complex operations by delegating parts of its workload. This promotes modularity and improves overall efficiency in multi-step processes.
When to use it
- Complex Task Decomposition: Break down large, multifaceted goals into smaller, manageable sub-tasks handled by specialized agents.
- Role Assignment: Create distinct agents for specific roles like "researcher," "writer," or "editor" within a project.
- Parallel Processing: Run multiple tasks concurrently by assigning them to different sub-agents.
- Dynamic Workflow Adjustment: Generate new sub-agents on the fly based on changing requirements or unexpected events.
Key capabilities
- Sub-agent creation
- Task assignment to sub-agents
- Sub-agent management (start, stop)
- Workflow delegation
Example prompts
- "Create a sub-agent named 'Researcher' with the task of finding information on quantum computing."
- "Generate a new agent called 'Writer' and assign it the task of drafting an email based on the research findings from the 'Researcher' agent."
- “Start the ‘Editor’ sub-agent to review the draft email.”
Tips & gotchas
The skill requires careful planning of sub-agent roles and responsibilities. Ensure clear communication protocols are established between the parent agent and its sub-agents for optimal performance.
