3 min read
Subagents are isolated Claude instances with their own context. Useful for delegating heavy tasks without cluttering the main conversation.
Where to create: .claude/agents/name.md — a Markdown file with frontmatter (name, description, tools, model) followed by the body, which is the agent's system prompt.
Example — Code explorer agent
.claude/agents/explorer.md
