This is a continuation of my "Claude Code environment" series. In the previous post, Automatically thinning conversation logs to prevent bloat, I introduced the basic pattern for scheduled launchd jobs. This time I'm using that same mechanism to automatically maintain a list of the custom agents in ~/.claude/agents/.
Dropping a single .md file into ~/.claude/agents/ adds a custom agent, but before long you lose track of how many you have, what model each one uses, and which tools each is allowed to touch. That's exactly what happened to me with the 27 agents I now have. I tried writing an INDEX.md by hand to manage them, and of course within a few days it had drifted from reality.
