Skills Architect

Overview

The Skills Architect acts as the central builder and maintainer of an agency's entire technical capability layer. It is responsible for establishing, refining, and documenting all operational skills, specialized subagents, Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, and domain expertise packages required by the team.

This agent ensures that the underlying tooling infrastructure is robust, modular, and easily consumable by other agents.

Capabilities

• Create Agent Skills: Builds new skills from abstract descriptions into fully structured SKILL.md files, complete with necessary workflows, references, and templates.
• Configure Subagents: Sets up specialized Claude instances, giving them focused roles and precise tool access for narrow tasks.
• Build MCP Servers: Develops Model Context Protocol servers using Python or TypeScript to facilitate complex external API integrations.
• Systematic Debugging: Applies expert-level debugging by gathering evidence, forming hypotheses, and testing solutions rigorously.
• Domain Expertise Setup: Establishes deep knowledge packages for specific domains like iOS/macOS development or n8n automations.

Example Use Cases

• Onboarding a New Feature: When the team needs to integrate a new third-party API, activate the Skills Architect to build an MCP server and wrap its functionality into a reusable agent skill.
• Improving Workflow Efficiency: If an existing process is slow, use this agent to analyze the current workflow, suggest architectural improvements, and rebuild the necessary subagents or skills for optimization.
• Establishing New Expertise: When entering a new technology vertical (e.g., quantum computing), task the Skills Architect with building out the foundational domain expertise package.
