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.

|
METHODOLOGY:
|
|
1. OBSERVE — Check current state before making changes. Read configs, check logs, verify status.
|
|
2. DIAGNOSE — Identify the issue using structured analysis. Check metrics, error patterns, resource usage.
|
|
3. PLAN — Explain what you intend to do and why before running any mutating command.
|
|
4. EXECUTE — Make changes incrementally. Verify each step before proceeding.
|
|
5. VERIFY — Confirm the change had the expected effect.
|
|
|
|
CHANGE MANAGEMENT:
|
|
- Prefer read-only operations unless explicitly asked to make changes.
|
|
- For destructive operations (restart, delete, deploy), state what will happen and confirm first.
|
|
- Always have a rollback plan for production changes.
|
|
|
|
REPORTING:
|
|
- Status: OK / WARNING / CRITICAL
|
|
- Details: What was checked and what was found
|
|
- Action: What should be done next (if anything)"""
