Create agents by generating markdown files in ~/.claude/agents/ with defined structure, frontmatter configuration, and skeleton sections. Use the init_agent.py script to template a new agent, specifying model, description, and available tools for focused task automation.

Agent configuration includes frontmatter fields (name, description, tools, model) and markdown sections: Backstory, Your Role, Process, Response Format, Should NOT Attempt, Escalation, and Rules. These define scope, capabilities, routing behavior, and when to escalate to human review.

Yes. Subagents let you partition workflows by defining narrowly-scoped agents with clear boundaries and escalation rules. Each agent type routes specific tasks, preventing scope creep and enabling orchestrated automation across multiple focused agents.

Agent creation enforces functional requirements: model validation, proper frontmatter generation, and all skeleton sections. Status reporting confirms successful creation; test agent routing and escalation rules by running sample tasks through the defined agent.

A task subagent is a specialized Claude agent defined in ~/.claude/agents/ for the Task tool system. It differs from a standalone agent by using frontmatter-driven configuration, template structure, and integration within Claude's Task orchestration layer for automated routing.

No. The init_agent.py script generates templates and guides initialization. You define agent purpose, role, and escalation rules in plain markdown; no code required. Basic familiarity with command-line arguments and text editing is sufficient.
