This skill provides a technical blueprint for building agentic systems that remain compatible across different LLM providers. It focuses on the structural requirements of agent loops, from tool design and record provenance to memory lifecycles and context compaction.
It is designed for builders auditing or refactoring agent architectures to improve observability, safety, and the implementation of self-refining recursive harnesses.
Follow the documented setup, then try a first task.
