Can I limit which tools an agent has access to?

Yes, you can use the optional 'tools' field in the YAML frontmatter to provide an array of specific tool names, ensuring the agent follows the principle of least privilege.

How do I trigger an agent in Claude Code?

Agents are triggered via the 'description' field in the markdown frontmatter, which must include specific 'Use this agent when' conditions and example blocks showing the user request and assistant response.

What is a Claude Code agent?

An agent is an autonomous subprocess within a Claude Code plugin designed to handle complex, multi-step tasks independently using a specific system prompt and toolset.

What is the best practice for agent model selection?

Using 'inherit' is the recommended default as it allows the agent to use the same model as the parent process, though you can specify 'sonnet', 'opus', or 'haiku' for specific cost or capability needs.
