Fine to try.

Use when delegating work to a separate agent with its own context. Covers when delegation pays off, designing a subagent's scope and prompt, parallel fan-out, and the cost of a cold start. Trigger on "spin up a subagent for this", "run these searches in parallel", "the search results are flooding my context", "have a fresh agent verify this". Do not use for building a standalone tool-using agent — see the agent-design skill.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'subagents' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'subagents' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named subagents already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/nimadorostkar/Claude-Skills-collection' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '1691932edc17063d712a85d02bcc7a1cd3791057' -- 'skills/agent-tooling/subagents' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/agent-tooling/subagents' ~/.agents/skills/'subagents' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'subagents' ~/.claude/skills/'subagents' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
