knitbrain_create_agent

Generate a project-specific subagent with guardrails for file scope, allowed tools, optional review gate, and context budget.

Instructions

Generate a project-specific subagent (.claude/agents/.md) with 4 guardrails: file scope, allowed-tools, optional review gate, context budget.

Behavior3/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It discloses file creation (.claude/agents/<name>.md) and guardrails, but lacks details on side effects (e.g., overwriting), auth needs, or rate limits. Minimal extra context beyond the stated action.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Single sentence packs key info but is slightly long. Could be broken into multiple sentences for clarity, but no wasted words.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness2/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Incomplete for a creation tool with 6 parameters and no output schema. Missing explanation for 'description' parameter, no format for tools/scope, and no return value or confirmation description.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters2/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 0%, so description must explain parameters. It covers most (scope, tools, reviewGate, contextBudget) but omits the 'description' parameter (the subagent's description) and does not specify data types or allowed values (e.g., scope enum, tools array format). Significant gap.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the verb 'generate' and the resource 'project-specific subagent' with file path and guardrails. It distinguishes from sibling tools like knitbrain_propose_agents.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines3/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Implies creation of subagents with guardrails but does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives like knitbrain_propose_agents. No when-not or prerequisites mentioned.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
