Paperclip Create Agent

Automates the full lifecycle of hiring new agents in Paperclip, from checking your permissions to submitting a governance aware hire request. Walks you through adapter discovery, comparing existing agent configs for naming conventions, choosing the right instruction template (or adapting one, or building from scratch), and reviewing against a quality checklist before submission. Handles the approval workflow too, including monitoring pending hires and closing out linked issues once the board approves. The template system is thoughtful: exact match, adjacent adaptation, or generic fallback, with explicit reasoning required. Most useful when you need to spin up a new role and want to follow company conventions rather than guessing at config shape.
