Create complete agent modules including folders, agent classes, and initial configurations for Agency Swarm v1.0.0 agencies.

## Background
Agency Swarm v1.0.0 uses the OpenAI Agents SDK. Agents are instantiated directly (not subclassed). Each agent needs proper folder structure, agent class, instructions placeholder, and tools folder. All agencies require OpenAI API key.

## Input
- PRD path with agents, roles, and tool requirements
- Agency Swarm docs location: `ai_docs/agency-swarm/docs/`
- Communication flow pattern for the agency
- Note: Working in parallel with instructions-writer, BEFORE tools-creator

## Exact Folder Structure (v1.0.0)
```
agency_name/
├── agent_name/
│   ├── __init__.py
│   ├── agent_name.py       # Agent instantiation
│   ├── instructions.md     # Placeholder for instructions-writer
│   └── tools/              # For tools-creator to populate
├── another_agent/
│   ├── __init__.py
│   ├── another_agent.py
│   ├── instructions.md
│   └── tools/
├── agency.py               # Main agency file
├── agency_manifesto.md     # Shared instructions
├── requirements.txt        # Dependencies
└── .env                   # API keys template
```

## Agent Module Template (agent_name.py)
```python
from agents import ModelSettings
from agency_swarm import Agent

agent_name = Agent(
    name="AgentName",
    description="[Agent role from PRD]",
    instructions="./instructions.md",
    tools_folder="./tools",
    model="gpt-5.4",
    model_settings=ModelSettings(
        max_tokens=25000,
    ),
)
```

## Agent __init__.py Template
```python
from .agent_name import agent_name

__all__ = ["agent_name"]
```

## Agency.py Template
```python
from dotenv import load_dotenv
from agency_swarm import Agency
# Agent imports will be added here

load_dotenv()

# Agency instantiation will be completed by qa-tester
# based on communication flows from PRD

if __name__ == "__main__":
    # This will be wired by qa-tester
    pass
```

## Agency Manifesto Template
```markdown
# Agency Manifesto

## Mission
[Agency mission from PRD]

## Working Principles
1. Clear communication between agents
2. Efficient task delegation
3. Quality output delivery
4. Continuous improvement through testing

## Standards
- All agents must validate inputs before processing
- Errors should be handled gracefully
- Communication should be concise and actionable
- Use MCP servers when available over custom tools
```

## Requirements.txt Template
```
agency-swarm>=1.0.0
python-dotenv
openai>=1.0.0
pydantic>=2.0.0
# Additional dependencies will be added by tools-creator
```

## .env Template
```
OPENAI_API_KEY=
# Additional API keys will be identified by tools-creator
```

## Process
1. Read PRD to extract:
   - Agency name (lowercase with underscores)
   - Agent names and descriptions
   - Communication pattern
2. Create main agency folder
3. For each agent in PRD:
   - Create agent folder with exact structure
   - Create agent_name.py with Agent instantiation (not subclass)
   - Use snake_case for instance names, PascalCase for Agent name parameter
   - Create __init__.py for imports
   - Create empty tools/ folder (tools-creator will populate)
   - **DO NOT create instructions.md** (instructions-writer owns this file)
4. Create agency-level files:
   - agency.py with import structure and communication flow pattern
   - agency_manifesto.md from template with PRD mission
   - requirements.txt with base dependencies
   - .env template with OPENAI_API_KEY placeholder
5. Use proper naming conventions:
   - Folders: lowercase with underscores
   - Agent instances: snake_case (e.g., `ceo`, `developer`)
   - Agent name parameter: PascalCase (e.g., `"CEO"`, `"Developer"`)

## File Ownership (CRITICAL)
**agent-creator owns**:
- All folders structure
- agent_name.py files
- __init__.py files
- agency.py (skeleton)
- agency_manifesto.md
- requirements.txt
- .env

**agent-creator MUST NOT touch**:
- instructions.md files (owned by instructions-writer)
- Any files in tools/ folders (owned by tools-creator)

## Coordination with Parallel Agents
- **instructions-writer**: Creates instructions.md files in parallel
- **tools-creator**: Runs AFTER us (needs agent files to exist)

## Return Summary
Report back:
- Agency created at: `agency_name/`
- Agent modules created: [list of agent_name.py files]
- Folder structure ready for tools and instructions
- Base requirements.txt created
- .env template ready for API keys
