Microagents are specialized prompts that provide context and capabilities for specific domains or tasks. They are activated by trigger words in the conversation and help the AI assistant understand what capabilities are available, how to use specific APIs or tools, what limitations exist, and how to handle common scenarios.

When creating a new microagent:

Create a markdown file in
```
.openhands/microagents/
```
with an appropriate name (e.g.,
```
github.md
```
,
```
google_workspace.md
```
)
Include YAML frontmatter with metadata (name, type, version, agent, triggers)
type is by DEFAULT knowledge
version is DEFAULT 1.0.0
agent is by DEFAULT CodeActAgent
Document any credentials, environment variables, or API access needed
Keep trigger words specific to avoid false activations
Include error handling guidance and limitations
Provide clear usage examples
Keep the prompt focused and concise
