FAQPage Schema
How do I scaffold a new Claude Code subagent?

To scaffold a new Claude Code subagent, provide the agent name and its purpose. The tool generates a ready-to-use template at .claude/agents/<agent-name>.md with metadata, example configuration, and standard governance files.

What is the difference between Type A and Type B autonomous agents in Claude Code?

Type A autonomous agents are subagents generated as single markdown files with metadata, while Type B agents receive a full folder structure including AGENT.md, HEARTBEAT.md, MEMORY.md, RULES.md, and template skill files for autonomous operation.

How do I create governance artifacts for a custom AI agent?

You create governance artifacts for a custom AI agent by scaffolding a Type B autonomous agent. This process automatically generates RULES.md and HEARTBEAT.md files to enforce safety boundaries, escalation rules, and governance constraints.

Does the Claude Code agent scaffolding process check for naming conflicts?

Yes, the Claude Code agent scaffolding process performs conflict checks against existing agents. This ensures your new agent name does not collide with previously created configurations in the .claude/agents/ directory.

What files do I need to set up an autonomous AI agent?

To set up an autonomous AI agent, you need AGENT.md, HEARTBEAT.md, MEMORY.md, and RULES.md files. The scaffolding workflow generates these standard files along with template skills and documents dependencies automatically.

Can I generate agent templates without writing boilerplate configuration?

Yes, you can generate agent templates without writing boilerplate by providing the agent name and mission. The workflow outputs standard configuration, governance boundaries, and dependency documentation automatically under .claude/agents/.
