To create custom subagents for Cursor, you add Markdown files with YAML frontmatter defining the name and description, then write the system prompt in the body to control delegation and workflow.
Project-level subagents are stored in `.cursor/agents/` for project-specific sharing, while user-level subagents use `~/.cursor/agents/` to personalize agents across all your projects.
Use isolated subagents to make complex AI workflows modular and reusable, such as creating a code-reviewer to enforce standards or a debugger to guide root-cause analysis independently.
You configure subagent behavior by defining the name and description in YAML frontmatter at the top of the Markdown file, and writing the tailored system prompt in the body.
Yes, this approach works without external dependencies because it relies entirely on placing Markdown files with YAML frontmatter into the correct local Cursor agents directories.
Limitations include manually ensuring correct directory placement and YAML syntax, as subagents will not function if the file structure is invalid or the system prompt lacks clear delegation instructions.
