🎭 Agency Agents — AI Specialist Personalities Skill by ara.so — Daily 2026 Skills collection. A curated collection of 50+ specialized AI agent personalities for Claude Code, Cursor, Aider, Windsurf, Copilot, and more. Each agent has deep domain expertise, a distinct personality, defined workflows, and measurable deliverables — covering engineering, design, marketing, sales, paid media, and beyond. Installation Prerequisites git clone https://github.com/msitarzewski/agency-agents.git cd agency-agents Claude Code (Recommended)

Copy all agents to Claude's agents directory

cp -r agency-agents/* ~/.claude/agents/

Or symlink for auto-updates

ln -s /path/to/agency-agents ~/.claude/agents/agency Then in any Claude Code session: Hey Claude, activate Frontend Developer mode and help me build a React component All Other Tools (Interactive Installer)

Step 1: Generate integration files for all supported tools

./scripts/convert.sh

Step 2: Auto-detect installed tools and install interactively

./scripts/install.sh

Or target a specific tool

./scripts/install.sh --tool cursor ./scripts/install.sh --tool copilot ./scripts/install.sh --tool aider ./scripts/install.sh --tool windsurf Manual per Tool Tool Install path Claude Code ~/.claude/agents/ Cursor .cursor/rules/ in project root Copilot .github/copilot-instructions.md Aider .aider.conf.yml or pass via --system-prompt Windsurf .windsurf/rules/ in project root Agent Roster Engineering Division engineering/engineering-frontend-developer.md React/Vue/Angular, UI, Core Web Vitals engineering/engineering-backend-architect.md API design, databases, scalability engineering/engineering-mobile-app-builder.md iOS/Android, React Native, Flutter engineering/engineering-ai-engineer.md ML models, AI integration, data pipelines engineering/engineering-devops-automator.md CI/CD, infra automation, cloud ops engineering/engineering-rapid-prototyper.md MVPs, POCs, hackathon speed engineering/engineering-senior-developer.md Laravel/Livewire, advanced patterns engineering/engineering-security-engineer.md Threat modeling, secure code review engineering/engineering-code-reviewer.md PR reviews, code quality gates engineering/engineering-database-optimizer.md PostgreSQL/MySQL tuning, slow queries engineering/engineering-git-workflow-master.md Branching, conventional commits engineering/engineering-software-architect.md System design, DDD, trade-off analysis engineering/engineering-sre.md SLOs, error budgets, chaos engineering engineering/engineering-incident-response-commander.md Incident management, post-mortems engineering/engineering-technical-writer.md Developer docs, API reference engineering/engineering-data-engineer.md Data pipelines, lakehouse, ETL/ELT Design Division design/design-ui-designer.md Visual design, component libraries design/design-ux-researcher.md User testing, behavior analysis design/design-ux-architect.md CSS systems, technical UX design/design-brand-guardian.md Brand identity and consistency design/design-whimsy-injector.md Micro-interactions, delight, Easter eggs design/design-image-prompt-engineer.md Midjourney/DALL-E/SD prompts design/design-inclusive-visuals-specialist.md Representation, bias mitigation Marketing, Sales & Paid Media marketing/marketing-growth-hacker.md marketing/marketing-content-creator.md paid-media/paid-media-ppc-strategist.md paid-media/paid-media-creative-strategist.md sales/sales-outbound-strategist.md sales/sales-deal-strategist.md sales/sales-discovery-coach.md Using Agents in Claude Code Activating a Single Agent

In Claude Code chat:

Activate the Backend Architect agent and help me design a REST API for a multi-tenant SaaS app. Using Multiple Agents in Sequence

First, design the system

Activate the Software Architect agent. Design the domain model for an e-commerce platform.

Then implement

Now activate the Senior Developer agent and implement the Order aggregate in Laravel.

Then review

Activate the Code Reviewer agent and review the implementation above. Referencing an Agent File Directly

Pass an agent as a system prompt in Claude CLI

claude --system-prompt " $( cat ~/.claude/agents/engineering-frontend-developer.md ) " \ "Build a responsive product card component in React with Tailwind CSS" Using Agents in Cursor After running ./scripts/install.sh --tool cursor , agent rules land in .cursor/rules/ . Reference them in chat: @engineering-frontend-developer Build a data table component with sorting and pagination. Or set a default rule in .cursor/rules/default.mdc :

alwaysApply : true

You are operating as the Senior Developer agent from The Agency. Refer to .cursor/rules/engineering-senior-developer.md for your full persona and workflows. Using Agents with Aider

Use a single agent as the system prompt

aider --system-prompt " $( cat agency-agents/engineering/engineering-security-engineer.md ) "

Or reference in .aider.conf.yml

echo "system-prompt: agency-agents/engineering/engineering-devops-automator.md"

.aider.conf.yml Using Agents in Windsurf ./scripts/install.sh --tool windsurf

Agents are written to .windsurf/rules/

Activate in chat: Use the UX Architect agent rules from .windsurf/rules/ to audit my CSS architecture. Real Workflow Examples Full-Stack Feature with Multiple Agents

1. Architecture phase

cat

task.md << 'EOF' I need to add real-time notifications to my Node.js + React app. Users should see in-app alerts and optionally receive email digests. EOF

Invoke Software Architect

claude --system-prompt " $( cat ~/.claude/agents/engineering-software-architect.md ) " < task.md

2. Backend implementation

claude --system-prompt " $( cat ~/.claude/agents/engineering-backend-architect.md ) " \ "Implement the notification service based on the architecture above using PostgreSQL LISTEN/NOTIFY and Socket.io"

3. Frontend implementation

claude --system-prompt " $( cat ~/.claude/agents/engineering-frontend-developer.md ) " \ "Build the React notification bell component that connects to the Socket.io feed"

4. Security review

claude --system-prompt " $( cat ~/.claude/agents/engineering-security-engineer.md ) " \ "Review the notification system implementation for security issues" Code Review Workflow

Generate a diff and pipe to the Code Reviewer agent

git diff main .. feature/payment-integration | \ claude --system-prompt " $( cat ~/.claude/agents/engineering-code-reviewer.md ) " \ "Review this PR diff. Focus on security, correctness, and maintainability." Database Optimization

Paste slow query log and activate Database Optimizer

claude --system-prompt " $( cat ~/.claude/agents/engineering-database-optimizer.md ) " << 'EOF' Here is a slow query from our PostgreSQL logs (avg 4200ms): SELECT u., p., o.* FROM users u LEFT JOIN profiles p ON p.user_id = u.id LEFT JOIN orders o ON o.user_id = u.id WHERE u.created_at > NOW() - INTERVAL '30 days' ORDER BY o.created_at DESC; Table sizes: users=2M rows, orders=18M rows. No indexes on created_at columns. EOF Incident Response

Structured incident kick-off

claude --system-prompt " $( cat ~/.claude/agents/engineering-incident-response-commander.md ) " << 'EOF' SEV-1 INCIDENT: Payment processing returning 503 errors since 14:32 UTC. Error rate: 94%. Affected: checkout, subscription renewals. Recent deploys: payment-service v2.4.1 at 14:15 UTC. EOF Creating Custom Agents Agent files follow a consistent markdown structure:

Success Metrics

[Measurable outcome] Save custom agents to agency-agents/custom/ and re-run ./scripts/convert.sh to generate tool integrations. Contributing New Agents

Fork and clone

git clone https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/agency-agents.git

Create your agent in the appropriate division

cp engineering/engineering-senior-developer.md \ engineering/engineering-YOUR-SPECIALTY.md

Edit the file, then test it

claude --system-prompt " $( cat engineering/engineering-YOUR-SPECIALTY.md ) " \ "Give me a sample deliverable to demonstrate your capabilities"

Submit a PR

git checkout -b agent/your-specialty git add engineering/engineering-YOUR-SPECIALTY.md git commit -m "feat: add Your Specialty agent" git push origin agent/your-specialty Troubleshooting Agents not found in Claude Code ls ~/.claude/agents/

If empty, re-run:

cp -r /path/to/agency-agents/* ~/.claude/agents/ convert.sh fails with permission error chmod +x scripts/convert.sh scripts/install.sh ./scripts/convert.sh Cursor not picking up agent rules

Rules must be in project root .cursor/rules/

ls .cursor/rules/

Re-run installer targeting cursor

./scripts/install.sh

--tool

cursor

Agent personality not activating

Be explicit:

"Activate the Frontend Developer agent"

rather than just referencing the topic

Paste the agent file contents directly into the system prompt if tool integration isn't working

For Claude Code, confirm agents directory:

claude config get agentsDir

Agent conflicts when using multiple

Activate one agent per conversation session

For multi-agent workflows, use separate sessions or Claude Code's subagent feature

Sequence agents explicitly: architect → implement → review
