Writing Agents

Overview

Agents are specialized AI assistants with custom prompts, models, and tool access. Configure via markdown files or JSON.

When to Use

  • Creating a new agent for specific tasks
  • Editing agent prompts, permissions, or tool access
  • Choosing between primary vs subagent mode
  • Setting up task permissions for orchestration
  • Reviewing agent configuration quality

Don't use for: skill files (use writing-skills), system prompts without agent context, or MCP server config.
