<critical_constraints> ❌ NO adapters without BaseAdapter inheritance ❌ NO skipping filesystem.py registration ❌ NO skipping copy.py registration ✅ MUST create agents/<name>/adapter.py ✅ MUST update SUPPORTED_AGENTS and AGENT_SCOPES ✅ MUST test with ask copy <agent> --skill bug-finder </critical_constraints>

<workflow> 1. Research: find local path (.agent/) and global path (~/.agent/) 2. Create: agents/<name>/adapter.py inheriting BaseAdapter 3. Register: add loader function in filesystem.py 4. Register: add to SUPPORTED_AGENTS and AGENT_SCOPES in copy.py 5. Document: update README.md supported agents table 6. Test: `ask copy <agent> --skill bug-finder` </workflow>
