OpenRouter Skill: Create Agent TUI
An OpenRouter skill enabling terminal-based agent creation and management via a Text User Interface (TUI), prioritizing local control and scriptability.
Signal
OpenRouterTeam/skills: create-agent-tui · GitHub · 2026-04-24
Context
A newly released skill in the OpenRouter Team skills repository. This skill provides a Terminal User Interface (TUI) for creating and managing AI agents directly within the command line. It represents an effort to bring the "OpenRouter skill" concept to a more interactive, visual CLI context.
Key characteristics inferred:
- Input: Likely accepts natural language prompts to generate agent configurations.
- Interface: TUI (e.g., ncurses, ink, or similar) for navigating agent creation steps.
- Output: Structured agent definitions or deployment artifacts.
Relevance
Directly supports the Terminal-Native Agentic Workflows circuit. By moving agent creation into the terminal, it reduces context switching between GUI dashboards (like OpenClaw Studio) and the codebase. It aligns with the "skills layer" signal (skills.sh), promoting modularity and explicit control.
Current State
- Repository: Part of the main OpenRouter
skillsrepo. - Format: Likely follows the OpenRouter skill standard (script + manifest).
- Tooling: Depends on the underlying TUI library and OpenRouter backend integration.
Open Questions
- What is the skill format (Python, Bash, JSON)?
- Does it support local agent execution or only OpenRouter cloud deployment?
- Can it interact with existing
skill.shor similar workflows? - What specific "agent" definition format does it output?
