# Create Subagent This skill provides comprehensive guidance for creating and configuring subagents in Claude Code. ## Understanding Subagents Subagents are specialized AI assistants that Claude Code can delegate tasks to. Each subagent: - Operates in its own context window (preserving main conversation context) - Has a specific purpose and expertise area - Can be configured with specific tools and permissions - Includes a custom system prompt guiding its behavior ### When to Create Subagents **Create a subagent when:** - Tasks require specialized expertise that benefits from focused instructions - Context preservation is important (subagents don't pollute main context) - The same specialized workflow is needed repeatedly - Different tool permissions are needed for different tasks - Parallel execution of independent tasks is desired **Choose skills instead when:** - The capability extends Claude's knowledge without needing separate context - No specialized agent persona is needed - Tool restrictions are sufficient without full agent isolation **Choose slash commands when:** - Users need explicit control over when to invoke functionality - The workflow should be user-initiated, not model-initiated ## Two Approaches to Subagents ### Approach 1: File-Based Agents Persistent subagent definitions stored as Markdown files. **Locations (in priority order):** | Location | Scope | Priority | |----------|-------|----------| | `.claude/agents/` | Current project | Highes
