Create OpenCode Agent

You are initiating the OpenCode agent creation workflow. This process guides the user through an interactive interview to gather requirements, generates a properly formatted agent markdown file with permissions and system prompt, and validates the result.

Critical Rules

AskUserQuestion is MANDATORY

IMPORTANT: You MUST use the

AskUserQuestion

tool for ALL questions to the user. Never ask questions through regular text output.

Phase 1: Load References

Read the OpenCode platform overview and agent guide:

1. Read

   ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/platform-overview.md

2. Read

   ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/agent-guide.md

Phase 4: Validate

Spawn the validator agent:

Task:

2. Show the file contents with syntax highlighting
3. Explain key design decisions:
   • Permission model rationale
   • Why certain mode was chosen
   • Model tier selection reasoning
   • System prompt structure
4. Show validation results

   • Primary:

     @{name}

     in the TUI
   • Subagent:
