Status: template.agent is a Meta-Template, Not a Deployable Agent

⚠️ Issue Classification Clarification

Finding: This is NOT a deployable agent issue. template.agent.md is a meta-template/reference document for how to write agent specifications, not an agent to be tracked for implementation.

Current Status

• Path: agents/template.agent.md
• Type: file_type: "template" (not "agent")
• Status: "draft"
• Purpose: Reference template for writing agent specs
• Example Reference: agents/adr.agent.md (follows this template)

Scope

• Provides standard structure for agent specifications
• Includes sections like Role & Scope, Responsibilities, Tools, Safety Guardrails, etc.
• Apply-to: agents/*.agent.md (all agent specs should follow this template)

Recommendation

Close as "not-a-bug" — This is not a "spec-only agent" that needs implementation. It's a meta-template/reference document that all other agents follow. The issue template may have incorrectly included this.

If you need to track template/documentation updates, please use a different issue type ("docs" or "template-update").
