What problem does it solve?
Subagents enable developers to define focused AI assistants with isolated context, allowing domain-specific workflows and environment-aware prompts to be created, tested, and reused across IDEs.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Focused specialization: one task per subagent to maximize reliability and clarity.
- Cross-IDE placement and detection: supports Cursor, Claude Code, and OpenCode project or user scopes.
- Frontmatter-driven configuration: YAML frontmatter (name, description, and optional fields) plus a system prompt body for behavior.
- Phase-based creation workflow: Discovery, Design, Implementation, Verification, and Iteration phases with checklists.
- Safe testing and iteration: validation steps to ensure proper delegation and guardrails.
Quick Start
Create a new subagent file in the appropriate IDE directory (Cursor, Claude Code, or OpenCode) and populate it with valid YAML frontmatter and a system-prompt body.
