+description: Expert guidance for creating, building, and using Claude Code subagents and the Task tool. Use when working with subagents, setting up agent configurations, understanding how agents work, or using the Task tool to launch specialized agents.
+---
+
+<objective>
+Subagents are specialized Claude instances that run in isolated contexts with focused roles and limited tool access. This skill teaches you how to create effective subagents, write strong system prompts, configure tool access, and orchestrate multi-agent workflows using the Task tool.
+
+Subagents enable delegation of complex tasks to specialized agents that operate autonomously without user interaction, returning their final output to the main conversation.
+</objective>
+
+<quick_start>
+<workflow>
+
+1. Run `/agents` command
+2. Select "Create New Agent"
+3. Choose project-level (`.claude/agents/`) or user-level (`~/.claude/agents/`)
+4. Define the subagent:
+   - **name**: lowercase-with-hyphens
+   - **description**: When should this subagent be used?
+   - **tools**: Optional comma-separated list (inherits all if omitted)
+   - **model**: Optional (`sonnet`, `opus`, `haiku`, or `inherit`)
+5. Write the system prompt (the subagent's instructions)
+   </workflow>
+
+<example>
+```markdown
+---
+name: code-reviewer
+description: Expert code reviewer. Use proactively after code changes to review for quality, security, and best practices.
+tools: Read, Grep, Glob, Bash
+model: sonnet
+---
+
+<role>
+You are a senior code reviewer focused on quality, security, and best practices.
+</role>
+
+<focus_areas>
+
+- Code quality and maintainability
+- Security vulnerabilities
+- Performance issues
+- Best practices adherence
+  </focus_areas>
+
+<output_format>
+Provide specific, actionable feedback with file:line references.
+</output_format>
+
+```
+</example>
+</quick_start>
+
+<file_structure>
+| Type | Location | Scope | Priority |
+|------|----------|-------|----------|
+| **Project** | `.claude/agents/` | Current project only | Highest |
+| **User** | `~/.claude/agents/` | All projects | Lower |
+| **Plugin** | Plugin's `agents/` dir | All projects | Lowest |
+
+Project-level subagents override user-level when names conflict.
+</file_structure>
+
+<configuration>
+<field name="name">
+- Lowercase letters and hyphens only
+- Must be unique
+</field>
+
+<field name="description">
+- Natural language description of purpose
+- Include when Claude should invoke this subagent
+- Used for automatic subagent selection
+</field>
+
+<field name="tools">
+- Comma-separated list: `Read, Write, Edit, Bash, Grep`
+- If omitted: inherits all tools from main thread
+- Use `/agents` interface to see all available tools
+</field>
+
+<field name="model">
+- `sonnet`, `opus`, `haiku`, or `inherit`
+- `inherit`: uses same model as main conversation
+- If omitted: defaults to configured subagent model (usually sonnet)
+</field>
+</configuration>
+
+<execution_model>
+<critical_constraint>
+**Subagents are black boxes that cannot interact with users.**
+
+Subagents run in isolated contexts and return their final output to the main conversation. They:
+- ✅ Can use tools like Read, Write, Edit, Bash, Grep, Glob
+- ✅ Can access MCP servers and other non-interactive tools
+- ❌ **Cannot use AskUserQuestion** or any tool requiring user interaction
+- ❌ **Cannot present options or wait for user input**
+- ❌ **User never sees subagent's intermediate steps**
+
+The main conversation sees only the subagent's final report/output.
+</critical_constraint>
+
+<workflow_design>
+**Designing workflows with subagents:**
+
+Use **main chat** for:
+- Gathering requirements from user (AskUserQuestion)
+- Presenting options or decisions to user
+- Any task requiring user confirmation/input
+- Work where user needs visibility into progress
+
+Use **subagents** for:
+- Research tasks (API documentation lookup, code analysis)
+- Code generation based on pre-defined requirements
+- Analysis and reporting (security review, test coverage)
+- Context-heavy operations that don't need user interaction
+
+**Example workflow pattern:**
+```
+
+Main Chat: Ask user for requirements (AskUserQuestion)
+↓
+Subagent: Research API and create documentation (no user interaction)
+↓
+Main Chat: Review research with user, confirm approach
+↓
+Subagent: Generate code based on confirmed plan
+↓
+Main Chat: Present results, handle testing/deployment
+

+
+<system_prompt_guidelines>
+<principle name="be_specific">
+Clearly define the subagent's role, capabilities, and constraints.

+
+<principle name="use_pure_xml_structure">
+Structure the system prompt with pure XML tags. Remove ALL markdown headings from the body.

+</principle>
+</system_prompt_guidelines>
+
+<subagent_xml_structure>
+Subagent.md files are system prompts consumed only by Claude. Like skills and slash commands, they should use pure XML structure for optimal parsing and token efficiency.
+
+<recommended_tags>
+Common tags for subagent structure:
+
+- `<role>` - Who the subagent is and what it does
+- `<constraints>` - Hard rules (NEVER/MUST/ALWAYS)
+- `<focus_areas>` - What to prioritize
+- `<workflow>` - Step-by-step process
+- `<output_format>` - How to structure deliverables
+- `<success_criteria>` - Completion criteria
+- `<validation>` - How to verify work
+  </recommended_tags>
+
+<intelligence_rules>
+**Simple subagents** (single focused task):
+
+- Use role + constraints + workflow minimum
+- Example: code-reviewer, test-runner
+
+**Medium subagents** (multi-step process):
+
+- Add workflow steps, output_format, success_criteria
+- Example: api-researcher, documentation-generator
+
+**Complex subagents** (research + generation + validation):
+
+- Add all tags as appropriate including validation, examples
+- Example: mcp-api-researcher, comprehensive-auditor
+  </intelligence_rules>
+
+<critical_rule>
+**Remove ALL markdown headings (##, ###) from subagent body.** Use semantic XML tags instead.
+
+Keep markdown formatting WITHIN content (bold, italic, lists, code blocks, links).
+
+For XML structure principles and token efficiency details, see @skills/create-agent-skills/references/use-xml-tags.md - the same principles apply to subagents.
+</critical_rule>
+</subagent_xml_structure>
+
+<invocation>
+<automatic>
+Claude automatically selects subagents based on the `description` field when it matches the current task.
+</automatic>
+
+<explicit>
+You can explicitly invoke a subagent:
+
+```
+> Use the code-reviewer subagent to check my recent changes
+```
+
+```
+> Have the test-writer subagent create tests for the new API endpoints
+```
+
+</explicit>
+</invocation>
+
+<background_execution>
+Subagents can run in the background using the `run_in_background` parameter, allowing parallel execution while the main conversation continues.
+
+<how_it_works>
+**Starting a background subagent:**
+The Task tool accepts `run_in_background: true` to launch agents asynchronously:
+
+```
+Task tool call:
+- description: "Analyze security vulnerabilities"
+- prompt: "Review all authentication code for security issues..."
+- subagent_type: "security-reviewer"
+- run_in_background: true
+```
+
+The agent starts immediately and returns an `agent_id` for tracking.
+</how_it_works>
+
+<retrieving_results>
+**Getting results with TaskOutput:**
+Use the `TaskOutput` tool to retrieve results from background agents:
+
+```
+TaskOutput tool call:
+- task_id: "agent-12345"  # The agent_id from the Task call
+- block: true            # Wait for completion (default)
+- timeout: 30000         # Max wait time in ms
+```
+
+**Parameters:**
+| Parameter | Default | Description |
+|-----------|---------|-------------|
+| `task_id` | Required | The agent ID returned from Task tool |
+| `block` | `true` | Wait for completion or check current status |
+| `timeout` | `30000` | Max wait time in milliseconds (up to 600000) |
+
+**Non-blocking check:**
+Set `block: false` to check status without waiting:
+
+```
+TaskOutput tool call:
+- task_id: "agent-12345"
+- block: false
+```
+
+Returns current status: running, completed, or the final result.
+</retrieving_results>
+
+<parallel_agents>
+**Launching multiple agents in parallel:**
+
+To maximize performance, launch multiple independent agents simultaneously:
+
+```
+Single message with multiple Task tool calls:
+
+Task 1:
+- description: "Review code quality"
+- prompt: "Check code quality..."
+- subagent_type: "code-reviewer"
+- run_in_background: true
+
+Task 2:
+- description: "Run security scan"
+- prompt: "Scan for vulnerabilities..."
+- subagent_type: "security-scanner"
+- run_in_background: true
+
+Task 3:
+- description: "Check test coverage"
+- prompt: "Analyze test coverage..."
+- subagent_type: "test-analyzer"
+- run_in_background: true
+```
+
+Then retrieve all results:
+
+```
+TaskOutput calls for each agent_id
+```
+
+</parallel_agents>
+
+<when_to_use_background>
+**Use background agents for:**
+
+- Long-running analysis (security review, comprehensive code analysis)
+- Multiple independent tasks that can run in parallel
+- Tasks where you want to continue working while waiting
+- Research tasks that may take significant time
+
+**Don't use background for:**
+
+- Quick operations (< 10 seconds)
+- Tasks that depend on each other sequentially
+- Tasks where immediate results are needed for next step
+- Simple single-file operations
+
+**Pattern: Parallel Analysis Pipeline**
+
+```
+1. Launch multiple analysis agents in background
+2. Continue with other work or wait
+3. Collect all results
+4. Synthesize findings in main conversation
+```
+
+</when_to_use_background>
+
+<resuming_agents>
+**Resuming agents:**
+Agents can be resumed using the `resume` parameter with their agent ID:
+
+```
+Task tool call:
+- description: "Continue security review"
+- prompt: "Please continue with the remaining files..."
+- subagent_type: "security-reviewer"
+- resume: "agent-12345"  # Previous agent ID
+```
+
+The agent continues with its full previous context preserved.
+</resuming_agents>
+</background_execution>
+
+<management>
+<using_agents_command>
+Run `/agents` for an interactive interface to:
+- View all available subagents
+- Create new subagents
+- Edit existing subagents
+- Delete custom subagents
