What an Agent Looks Like
An agent adds a tools declaration:
---
name: draft-reviewer
domain: writing
description: Review AND FIX any draft for AI slop, writing craft, and voice consistency.
tools: Read, Write, Edit, Skill, Glob, mcp__local-llm__local_classify
model: sonnet
---That tools line is the difference. draft-reviewer can read the draft file, edit it directly, invoke other skills, and call a local language model for pre-classification. It doesn’t just produce advice — it acts.
The model field lets you route tasks to the right capability. Analysis tasks run on Sonnet. Tasks requiring careful judgment might run on Opus. You pick per agent.
