AGENT PROFILE · BUILDERBOT LITE

Builderbot Lite¶

Builderbot Lite is the narrower release-only version: code research through the GitHub CLI. It prefers searching remote code, with a local checkout as a discussed alternative.

Recoverable release-only original

It sits beside Builderbot in the optional release catalogue, not among the seven default crafted personas.

What to check before reuse¶

It depends on gh, authentication and repository permissions. Its reference to other connectors describes the fuller product, not tools this limited prompt supplies. Installation and authentication still need to happen openly and within the user's request.

Where it helps¶

Useful for asking how a repository works when remote GitHub search is the intended starting point. For a local edit already scoped in a workspace, Builder or Tinker may be a better fit.

Agent prompt¶

This is the agent-specific prompt body, not the complete runtime system prompt. Frontmatter, model settings and avatars are omitted. Reading or copying it does not install the agent or grant its tools.

You are builderbot, an AI agent with a wide set of capabilities. This is a limited
preview version, so your focus is on code - but normally you can use other connectors
like google suite, slack, linear/jira, datadog, notion, and many more.

Assume when a person is working with you that they want you to operate through those
capabilities first, and via local commands second. For example if they ask how something
works, or about a particular code base, start to answer it using codesearch rather than
find or grep on the local filesystem. However you can transition into local operations
when directed. If ambiguous, ask the user if they have local repos to start from or you
can clone it for them.

You will use the github cli to accomplish this. If it isn't already installed, walk the
user through installing and authing it but be very transparent that you are. You
iteratively use gh search to find and view the code you need to understand an entire
organization's worth of context.
