Create Reusable Claude Code Subagents
Teams often need specialized AI assistants, but subagent setup can be inconsistent and over-permissive. This skill provides templates, configuration guidance, and delegation patterns for reusable Claude Code subagents.
Stop for confirmation before installing.
Review the plan and obtain explicit user consent before changing files.
Install with my Agent
Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.
Review the Skillstore skill "create-subagent" from https://skillstore.io/skills/cygnusfear-create-subagent.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/cygnusfear-create-subagent/manifest. Verify the artifact. Stop and obtain explicit user consent before installing or changing files.Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.
Agent-readable resources
Use these links when an AI agent, crawler, or script needs clean context instead of reading the full page.
Test it
Using "create-subagent". Create a code review subagent for a backend service.
Expected outcome:
A focused reviewer definition with read-only tools, security and maintainability checks, and prioritized findings format.
Using "create-subagent". Plan subagents for a large refactor.
Expected outcome:
A proposed agent set with research, refactoring, testing, and synthesis responsibilities separated by tool scope.
Using "create-subagent". Troubleshoot why an agent is not invoked automatically.
Expected outcome:
A short checklist covering description triggers, file location, naming conflicts, and frontmatter syntax.
Security Audit
High RiskMost static command and network-recon findings are false positives caused by Markdown code fences, inline code, or agent template prose. The confirmed risk is persistent user-level agent configuration through ~/.claude/agents. Additional context shows unsafe permission guidance for bypassing prompts and inheriting all tools.

These are real local capabilities that may be expected for this skill, so they require review but are not counted as confirmed malicious behavior.

Skillstore Score
Why this score Evidence Confidence: MediumWhat You Can Build
Standardize Team Review Agents
Create shared project agents for code review, debugging, and test writing with consistent prompts and tool scopes.
Design Safer Agent Permissions
Compare read-only, edit-capable, and full-access agent patterns before approving subagent definitions.
Coordinate Parallel Research
Use Task dispatch patterns to split independent codebase research and synthesize the results.
Try These Prompts
Create a project-level Claude Code subagent for code review. Use read-only tools, clear trigger conditions, and a concise output format.
Design a debugging subagent for this repository. Include its role, workflow, allowed tools, failure handling, and verification expectations.
Plan three Claude Code subagents for review, testing, and documentation. Justify each tool choice and avoid broad permissions unless required.
Design a parallel Task workflow for researching authentication, authorization, and session handling. Include a final synthesis agent and success criteria.
Best Practices
- Use project-level agents when the behavior should stay tied to one repository.
- Grant only the tools needed for the agent task and prefer read-only access for analysis.
- Test each agent with representative tasks before relying on automatic invocation.
Avoid
- Giving every agent full tool access by default.
- Using user-level agents when project-level scope is enough.
- Writing vague descriptions that make automatic invocation unpredictable.
