What it does
“Use when building, enhancing, or testing the NPA chat agent backend — grounded-first routing, cost-aware Token Factory model selection, the embedded-backend mechanism, and cheap-token test tiers.”
Generated summary from the skill's own text
This skill guides building the NPA chat agent backend using a grounded-first routing architecture that minimizes token spending. It covers zero-token intent matching, cost-tier routing for cheap model selection, and the embedded-backend mechanism that inlines helper modules into the deployed agent VM. It includes Token Factory integration, guardrails, action loops, and testing strategies across multiple tiers.
When to use it
- Developing or enhancing the NPA agent chat backend logic
- Adding new agent capabilities with minimal token cost
- Building grounded intent matchers and response handlers
- Setting up cost-aware LLM routing and model selection
When not to
- Deploying or operating an existing agent (use npa-agent skill)
- Running fresh deploy/teardown cycles (use agent-fresh-operate skill)
- Building standalone chat interfaces or API clients
