launch-your-agent

A Claude Code skill that helps a technical founder build whatever they want on Claude Managed Agents (CMA) — an internal worker, a piece of their product, a customer-facing agent. It interviews you about what you want to build, scopes a v0, launches it in your own account, grades it against your own definition of done, iterates, and (if it should run on a clock) puts it on a scheduled deployment — with everything bigger laid out as an explicit v1/v2 plan.

Reference implementation. Not maintained and not accepting contributions. Licensed under Apache 2.0.

This is an educational skill that walks you through composing managed-agent primitives to solve your problem. Because it explains each step, it's more token-intensive than a purpose-built agent would be.

Quickstart

git clone https://github.com/anthropics/launch-your-agent.git
cd launch-your-agent
claude

Then type:

/launch-your-agent

The skills in .claude/skills/ are picked up automatically when you run Claude Code inside this folder — nothing to install.

When you're done (or any time later), /wrap-up refreshes the overview page, recaps every primitive you now own, and suggests the next 1–2 upgrades.

What you need

  • Claude Code installed and signed in.
  • An Anthropic API key for your own account (you'll create it during the flow at platform.claude.com → API keys; it goes into a local .env file, never into the chat). Runs cost cents.

What you walk away with

  • A live managed agent in your Console (agent + environment + graded run, plus a scheduled deployment if your task recurs).
  • A my-agent/ folder: the build sheet, the exact API payloads, a resumable launch script, an eval scaffold, an overview page, and a NEXT-DIRECTIONS.md laying out v1/v2.
