SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill allows you to offload one-time tasks to provider subagents, utilizing different models and services, without the need for long-term collaboration.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • One-shot Tasks: Run subagents for specific, one-time tasks such as research, analysis, or judgment.
  • Batch Fan-out: Execute multiple independent tasks in parallel using subagents.
  • Cost-bounded Probes: Limit the duration and cost of tasks to control resource usage.
  • Provider Flexibility: Utilize a wide range of models from various providers, including Codex/Claude subscriptions.

Quick Start

Run a subagent to analyze the complexity of quicksort using the 'deepseek' provider:

ccf subagent deepseek --model strong \
  --prompt "Analyze the worst-case complexity of quicksort in src/sort.go; give a triggering input" \
  --label "codex/quicksort" --json

FAQPage Schema
How do I run parallel research tasks using different AI models?

You can execute parallel research and bulk processing tasks by offloading them to provider subagents, which supports batch fan-out across various models and services. This enables independent tasks to run simultaneously without long-term collaboration.

Can I use provider subagents for one-off code analysis without long-term setup?

Yes, provider subagents are designed for one-shot tasks like code analysis, research, or judgment. You can execute a single task using a specific model, such as deepseek, and receive the output directly without maintaining a persistent agent.

What do I need to configure before offloading tasks to provider subagents?

To offload tasks to provider subagents, you must configure your provider API keys and complete the Claude Code setup. This environment preparation ensures the subagents can authenticate and communicate with the desired models.

How do I limit the cost and duration of batch processing with subagents?

You can control resource usage during batch processing by utilizing cost-bounded probes. This feature limits the duration and cost of subagent tasks, ensuring your parallel model execution stays within defined resource constraints.

Does subagent execution work with models from different providers?

Yes, subagent execution supports provider flexibility, allowing you to utilize a wide range of models from various providers. This includes using Codex or Claude subscriptions to handle specialized model tasks for one-off execution.
