Creates and improves Claude subagents (agents/<name>.md) to the Advanced Skill Library Standard. Use when you need to author a new subagent, scaffold an agents/ delegate, declare its tools and chain, or raise an existing subagent's conformance.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# askit-build-subagent ## Purpose Author conformant subagents. Two modes: `create` scaffolds a new `agents/<name>.md` (frontmatter + role body); `improve` raises an existing subagent toward the quality bar. Subagents are Claude-only for plugin distribution (Codex v0.135 plugins cannot ship `[agents.*]`; Standard sec 3.3), so this skill emits no Codex artifact. Authoring depth is in [references/authoring-subagents.md](references/authoring-subagents.md). ## When to use When the user asks to create, scaffold, write, or improve a subagent (an `agents/<name>.md` delegate). ## create mode 1. Brief interview: ask for the subagent name (kebab-case), the bounded job it owns, the narrowest tools it needs, and which components (if any) it may invoke. Skip the interview if these inputs are already in context. 2. Copy `templates/agent.md` into `agents/<name>.md`. …

How to install
mdr add product-on-purpose/agent-skills-toolkit/askit-build-subagent@sha256:2a504571ca01259bThe line at the top of this page pins the label v0.2.3, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
