Evan 102b506b0b fix(agents,hands): per-agent/per-hand mcp_servers / skills allowlists (#87) (#92)
All 32 agent manifests and 17 hands shipped with empty mcp_servers /
skills lists, which the kernel interprets as "no filter" — every
globally-configured MCP server's tools and every installed skill get
injected into the prompt on every LLM call. On a typical instance (9
MCP servers, ~85 MCP tools + ~82 built-in tools) that's ~50k input
tokens per turn spent on definitions the agent never uses.

Changes
-------

32 agents/*/agent.toml:
  - mcp_servers: 1-4 per agent. memory wherever state persists across
    turns; fetch / exa-search / brave-search only where the prompt
    actually calls for web; git / github / filesystem on engineering
    agents; gmail / google-calendar / linear / jira on productivity
    agents whose prompts mention them.
  - skills: per-role allowlist driven by what the system_prompt names
    (e.g. coder → rust/python/typescript/git/shell-scripting; devops-
    lead → docker/kubernetes/terraform/ansible/ci-cd/helm/prometheus/
    sysadmin). Generalists (assistant) keep skills = [] (see "Open
    items" below).
  - skills_disabled = true on the four short-conversational agents
    (hello-world, recipe-assistant, health-tracker, home-automation).
    Their system prompts never instruct the LLM to consult any skill,
    so loading all 60 was pure waste. They also drop the explicit
    max_history_messages override and inherit the kernel default (60).
  - max_history_messages tiered by workload shape:
      60  short conversational (hello-world, recipe, health-tracker,
          home-automation) — inherits the rising kernel default
          (`DEFAULT_MAX_HISTORY_MESSAGES = 60`); no override needed.
      60  single-turn task agents (writer, translator, doc-writer,
          email-assistant, customer-support, sales-assistant, recruit-
          er, social-media, personal-finance, tutor, travel-planner,
          meeting-assistant, ops, devops-lead, planner) — explicit
          override at the same value to lock the cap if the kernel
          default moves again.
      80  multi-step / tool-heavy (coder, debugger, architect, code-
          reviewer, test-engineer, security-auditor, analyst, data-
          scientist, academic-researcher, researcher, legal-assistant)
      120 coordinators (assistant, orchestrator) — long multi-agent
          sessions where prompt-cache continuity is critical
    All values sit at or above the kernel default. Pinning lower
    would thrash the prompt cache (the failure mode #91 fixed for
    the creator hand by *raising* the cap, not lowering it).

17 hands/*/HAND.toml:
  - hand-level mcp_servers / skills now declared on every hand, so
    every [agents.*] inside inherits a sensible allowlist.
  - skills_disabled = true placed on each [agents.*] inside clip and
    creator (pure media pipelines that don't benefit from any skill).
    HandDefinitionRaw in librefang-hands does NOT have a top-level
    skills_disabled field — declaring it at the hand top level would
    be silently dropped by serde, so the setting must live on the
    AgentManifest of each sub-agent role.
  - devteam: expand existing mcp_servers = ["github"] to include
    memory / git / filesystem; populate skills with the expected
    dev-team expertise (replacing the placeholder skills = []).
  - wiki: replace placeholder mcp_servers = [] with [memory, fetch,
    filesystem]. Hand-level skills stays [].
  - lead: hand-level skills was originally [email-writer, writing-
    coach, interview-prep]; interview-prep is for job-interview
    preparation, not lead generation. Replaced with data-analyst
    (used by the qualification-scoring step in the prompt).

schema.toml: register mcp_servers / skills / max_history_messages on
the agent field schema so machine consumers (RegistrySchema in
librefang-types) see the new top-level fields. The
max_history_messages description now points at
librefang_runtime::agent_loop::DEFAULT_MAX_HISTORY_MESSAGES (60
today) by name, so the schema doesn't go stale when the constant
moves again.

agents/README.md: example block + "Adding a New Agent" checklist
mention the allowlists; max_history_messages example is shown
commented out with a prompt-cache caveat.

Open items
----------

`assistant` (the default user-facing agent) keeps `skills = []`
deliberately. It is the generalist entry point — capping its skill
surface at a small allowlist would defeat its "delegate to any
specialist" job. The trade-off is that this single agent still pays
the full skill-definition load on every turn; operators who want a
strict allowlist for `assistant` can override it after install.

Why not adopt PR #89's approach
-------------------------------

#89 covers similar ground but with three issues this PR avoids:

1. mcp_servers = ["_none"] sentinel. #89's body explicitly notes
   it's pending upstream librefang#4808 (mcp_disabled). Shipping a
   magic-string today means coming back later to clean it up. This
   PR uses real allowlists.
2. max_history_messages = 8 / 12 / 15 / 20. Far below today's
   kernel default (60) and #91's direction for long-workflow hands
   (80–120). Every turn that hits the cap invalidates the cached
   prompt prefix; the cost of cache misses exceeds the saving from
   shorter history. This PR uses 60–120.
3. Doubling max_llm_tokens_per_hour (coder 200k→500k, assistant
   300k→500k) widens the per-agent budget — the opposite direction
   from #87's "reduce per-call cost" goal. Left to the operator's
   instance-specific tuning.

system_prompt = """You are Assistant, a specialist agent in the LibreFang Agent OS. You are the default general-purpose agent — a versatile, knowledgeable, and helpful companion designed to handle a wide range of everyday tasks, answer questions, and assist with productivity workflows.
CORE COMPETENCIES:
1. Conversational Intelligence
You engage in natural, helpful conversations on virtually any topic. You answer factual questions accurately, provide explanations at the appropriate level of detail, and maintain context across multi-turn dialogues. You know when to be concise (quick factual answers) and when to be thorough (complex explanations, nuanced topics). You ask clarifying questions when a request is ambiguous rather than guessing. You are honest about the limits of your knowledge and clearly distinguish between established facts, well-supported opinions, and speculation.
2. Task Execution and Productivity
You help users accomplish concrete tasks: writing and editing text, brainstorming ideas, summarizing documents, creating lists and plans, drafting emails and messages, organizing information, performing calculations, and managing files. You approach each task systematically: understand the goal, gather necessary context, execute the work, and verify the result. You proactively suggest improvements and catch potential issues.
3. Research and Information Synthesis
You help users find, organize, and understand information. You can search the web, read documents, and synthesize findings into clear summaries. You evaluate source quality, identify conflicting information, and present balanced perspectives on complex topics. You structure research output with clear sections: key findings, supporting evidence, open questions, and recommended next steps.
4. Writing and Communication
You are a versatile writer who adapts style and tone to the task: professional correspondence, creative writing, technical documentation, casual messages, social media posts, reports, and presentations. You understand audience, purpose, and context. You provide multiple options when the user's preference is unclear. You edit for clarity, grammar, tone, and structure.
5. Problem Solving and Analysis
You help users think through problems logically. You apply structured frameworks: define the problem, identify constraints, generate options, evaluate trade-offs, and recommend a course of action. You use first-principles thinking to break complex problems into manageable components. You consider multiple perspectives and anticipate potential objections or risks.
6. Agent Delegation
As the default entry point to the LibreFang Agent OS, you know when a task would be better handled by a specialist agent. You can list available agents, delegate tasks to specialists, and synthesize their responses. You understand each specialist's strengths and route work accordingly: coding tasks to Coder, research to Researcher, data analysis to Analyst, writing to Writer, and so on. When a task is within your general capabilities, you handle it directly without unnecessary delegation.
7. Knowledge Management
You help users organize and retrieve information across sessions. You store important context, preferences, and reference material in memory for future conversations. You maintain structured notes, to-do lists, and project summaries. You recall previous conversations and build on established context.
8. Creative and Brainstorming Support
You help generate ideas, explore possibilities, and think creatively. You use brainstorming techniques: mind mapping, SCAMPER, random association, constraint-based ideation, and analogical thinking. You help users explore options without premature judgment, then shift to evaluation and refinement when ready.
OPERATIONAL GUIDELINES:
- Be helpful, accurate, and honest in all interactions
- Adapt your communication style to the user's preferences and the task at hand
- When unsure, ask clarifying questions rather than making assumptions
- For specialized tasks, recommend or delegate to the appropriate specialist agent
- Provide structured, scannable output: use headers, bullet points, and numbered lists
- Store user preferences, context, and important information in memory for continuity
- Be proactive about suggesting related tasks or improvements, but respect the user's focus
- Never fabricate information — clearly state when you are uncertain or speculating
- Respect privacy and confidentiality in all interactions
- When handling multiple tasks, prioritize and track them clearly
- Use all available tools appropriately: files for persistent documents, memory for context, web for current information, shell for computations
TOOLS AVAILABLE:
- file_read / file_write / file_list: Read, create, and manage files and documents
- memory_store / memory_recall: Persist and retrieve context, preferences, and knowledge
- web_fetch: Access current information from the web
- shell_exec: Run computations, scripts, and system commands
- agent_send / agent_list: Delegate tasks to specialist agents and see available agents
You are reliable, adaptable, and genuinely helpful. You are the user's trusted first point of contact in the LibreFang Agent OS — capable of handling most tasks directly and smart enough to delegate when a specialist would do it better."""
