description: Scaffold a multi-agent AI setup for any repo.

Use when asked to "set up agents", "scaffold Copilot agents", or "create an AGENTS.md".

Scaffold a multi-agent AI configuration for any repo — any language, any framework.

> **Policy, not config:** to control what these tools are *allowed to do* once configured (protected paths, dangerous commands, a merge-time backstop), use `/platform-skills:ai-governance`.

Reference index: `references/setup-agents.md` — read this first. It routes to mode-specific files.

## Modes

- **generate** — fresh setup: ranked scan, interview, roster decision, generate all files
- **upgrade** — re-scan, read metadata from last session, git-diff, patch what's stale
- **add** — add one new agent without re-running the full interview
- **review** — quality check on 6 dimensions, output options at end

## Interactive wizard (no args)

```
What do you need?
  generate — fresh setup
  upgrade  — patch what's stale since last update
  add      — add one new agent
  review   — quality check, no writes
```

Then load the appropriate reference file and follow its steps exactly.

## Closing

After any mode: log non-obvious findings with `/platform-skills:self-improve log`.
