Subagent Teams

Maintain optimum Claude performance by delegating heavy work to subagent teams, minimizing auto-compact of the main context window.

What This Skill Does

• Decomposes complex tasks into independent subtasks for parallel execution
• Delegates exploration, research, testing, and implementation to specialized subagents
• Keeps main orchestrator context lean (decision-making and synthesis only)
• Prevents auto-compact by isolating heavy work in separate context windows
• Selects optimal model per subtask (Opus for complex, Sonnet for moderate, Haiku for simple)

What This Skill Does NOT Do

• Handle tasks with strict sequential dependencies (use normal flow)
• Replace the main orchestrator's decision-making role
• Work for single-step trivial tasks (no delegation needed)
• Manage persistent state across subagent sessions
