What problem does it solve?
This skill helps teams create, validate, and refine Claude Code subagents to ensure reliable delegation and execution. It provides a structured workflow and templates to standardize how subagents are defined, tested, and deployed.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Interactive scaffolding: guides you through naming, scoping, and lifecycle decisions.
- Template-driven SKILL.md generation: leverages best practices from references and templates.
- Validation alignment: ensures frontmatter, prompts, hooks, and tooling meet production standards.
- Team-ready workflows: supports personal, team, and production environments.
Quick Start
- Start with the skills toolkit: /skills-toolkit:create-skill to generate a new skill skeleton.
- Provide the subagent name, its purpose, and the deployment scope; the tool will generate a SKILL.md that follows best practices.
- Flesh out the system prompt and optional hooks in the generated SKILL.md.
- Validate the subagent using the references and workflow guidance in references/validation-workflow.md.
- Persist the subagent in the appropriate scope (project-local .claude/agents/ or plugin path) and test delegation with realistic requests.
