ag2-shell-tool
ag2-shell-tool is an Agent frameworks & building agents skill for AI agents, published by ag2ai in the build-with-ag2 repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates ag2-shell-tool F (45/100) and the safety scan rated it risky; the rating is based on static analysis only.
Risky. This skill has patterns associated with unsafe behaviour. Read the source carefully before running it.
Give an AG2 beta `Agent` the ability to run shell commands. Covers `LocalShellTool` (client-side `subprocess`, works with any provider) and the provider-native `ShellTool` (Anthropic / OpenAI execution). Use when the user wants the Agent to execute commands, build/test code, manage files, or operate on a workspace. Always pair with sandboxing — `allowed`, `blocked`, `ignore`, or `readonly`.
