Professor-Synapse
Professor Synapse is an agent skill that transforms AI assistants into adaptive expert orchestrators by dynamically summoning and managing specialized agents tailored to user goals. It gathers context about objectives, creates or loads domain-specific expert agents using structured templates, and maintains persistent memory across sessions. Available as a universal prompt for any LLM, a self-building Claude Desktop skill that grows its agent library over time, or a portable skill folder for any skills-aware assistant, it enables multi-agent collaboration and learns patterns from interactions.
