What it does

This skill teaches an AI agent to design and generate a folder-based 'agent company': a set of agent instruction files, an optional CEO and team structure, and optional projects, tasks and skills, all following the Agent Companies specification. Before writing files, the agent interviews you about your goal, proposes a hiring plan and a workflow (pipeline, hub-and-spoke, collaborative or on-demand), and can also turn an existing repo or skills collection into a company package that wraps it.

Great for

  • Developers who want to turn a repo or existing skills collection into a structured agent team
  • People building a small multi-agent setup who want a spec-conformant starting point
  • Teams experimenting with Paperclip company packages

Skip it if

  • Users who just need a single agent skill or a one-off prompt; this generates a whole company folder structure, which is more than most tasks need
  • Anyone expecting it to run or deploy the agents itself; the skill only writes files based on its instructions and the referenced spec

Try asking

  • “Create a company from scratch for a small content marketing team with a CEO and three specialists”
  • “Turn this repo's existing skills into an agent company package with a pipeline workflow”
  • “Scaffold a design-review team without a CEO, with one top-level agent and two reviewers”

Get better results

  • Answer the interview questions with concrete roles and handoffs; the workflow choice shapes every agent's instructions.
  • Keep the team small (3-5 agents) unless your scope really needs more, as the skill recommends.
  • Review the generated files before publishing, especially any repo URLs and references in COMPANY.md.
