What are the naming requirements for agents?

Agent identifiers must be between 3 and 50 characters, use only lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens, and must start and end with an alphanumeric character.

Can I restrict which tools an agent can access?

Yes, the 'tools' frontmatter field allows you to define an array of specific tools, such as ['Read', 'Write'], following the principle of least privilege.

Which AI models can I use for my agents?

You can use 'inherit' (recommended) to match the parent model, or specify Claude Sonnet, Opus, or Haiku depending on the complexity of the task.

How are Claude Code agents triggered?

Agents are triggered via the description field in their frontmatter, which must include specific examples showing the context, user request, and intended assistant response.

What is an agent in the context of Claude Code?
