Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

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.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned aspiers/ai-config at 6c29f2480e.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

The subagent-authoring skill allows you to define and create new, specialized AI agents (subagents) that can be integrated into a larger agent workflow. It facilitates the decomposition of complex tasks by enabling the creation of focused subagents with specific capabilities. This promotes modularity and reusability within your overall AI system architecture.

When to use it

  • Complex Task Decomposition: Break down large, complicated projects into smaller, more manageable pieces handled by specialized agents.
  • Agent Specialization: Create agents that excel in a narrow domain, such as data analysis or content generation.
  • Workflow Automation: Automate the creation and configuration of subagents for repeatable processes.
  • Modular Agent Design: Build an agent system from reusable components, allowing for easier updates and modifications.

Key capabilities

  • Subagent definition
  • Agent integration
  • Task decomposition
  • Reusable component design

Example prompts

  • "Create a subagent named 'DataSummarizer' that can summarize long text documents."
  • "Define an agent to handle email triage and response, focusing on urgent matters only."
  • “Build a subagent for generating social media captions based on blog post content.”

Tips & gotchas

The skill requires a foundational understanding of AI agent architecture. Carefully define the scope and responsibilities of each subagent to avoid conflicts or inefficiencies within your overall system.
