AI Agents Development — Production Skill Hub

Modern Best Practices (March 2026): deterministic control flow, bounded tools, auditable state, MCP-based tool integration, handoff-first orchestration, multi-layer guardrails, OpenTelemetry tracing, and human-in-the-loop controls (OWASP LLM Top 10: https://owasp.org/www-project-top-10-for-large-language-model-applications/).

This skill provides production-ready operational patterns for designing, building, evaluating, and deploying AI agents. It centralizes procedures, checklists, decision rules, and templates used across RAG agents, tool-using agents, OS agents, and multi-agent systems.

No theory. No narrative. Only operational steps and templates.

When to Use This Skill

Codex should activate this skill whenever the user asks for:

• Designing an agent (LLM-based, tool-based, OS-based, or multi-agent).
• Scoping capability maturity and rollout risk for new agent behaviors.
• Creating action loops, plans, workflows, or delegation logic.
• Writing tool definitions, MCP tools, schemas, or validation logic.
