Agent Creator

Subagents are specialized AI assistants defined as Markdown files with YAML frontmatter. Each runs in its own context window with a custom system prompt, specific tool access, and independent permissions. Claude auto-delegates tasks based on each agent's description.

Agents vs Skills/Commands:

• Use agents for isolated, self-contained tasks — no conversation history, own context window, optional persistent memory
• Use skills/commands for inline workflows that need conversation context and run in the main session

File placement

When multiple agents share a name, higher-priority location wins. Project agents should be committed to version control.
