Create a fresh AgenticMail agent and confirm it is reachable. Use this when the user wants to spin up a teammate for a multi-agent task.

The user's arguments are: $ARGUMENTS

Steps

  1. Parse the first argument as the agent name. Parse the second (optional) argument as the role. If the role is not given, default to assistant.
  2. Call mcp__agenticmail__create_account with the name and role.
  3. Confirm the result by printing the new agent's email address and a one-line summary of what they can do.
  4. Suggest the next step. If the user is setting up a coordination task, tell them to send one kickoff email with all teammates on CC. If they wanted a solo agent, tell them how to address mail to <name>@localhost.

Notes

The dispatcher will pick up the new agent within milliseconds via the system-events push, so the agent is wake-able immediately. No restart needed for fresh agents.
