• The source hub's security checks flagged this skillGen Agent Trust Hub: fail (The skill provides architectural patterns for autonomous agents but introduces high-risk security vulnerabilities, specifically dynamic code generation and execution (RCE) and unsafe shell command execution that could lead to command injection. It also provides a significant attack surface for indirect prompt injection by fetching external content and processing it with high-privilege tools.); Snyk: warn (Risk: MEDIUM · 1 issue)

# 🕹️ Autonomous Agent Patterns

> Design patterns for building autonomous coding agents, inspired by [Cline](https://github.com/cline/cline) and [OpenAI Codex](https://github.com/openai/codex).

## Detailed Guide

Read [the detailed guide](references/detailed-guide.md) before executing this skill. It retains the complete procedure and reference material. Treat its safety, prerequisites, and validation requirements as mandatory. For focused work, load the relevant sections; for end-to-end work, read the guide completely.

## When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when:

- Building autonomous AI agents
- Designing tool/function calling APIs
- Implementing permission and approval systems
- Creating browser automation for agents
- Designing human-in-the-loop workflows

---

## Limitations
- Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
- Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
- Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
