What model should I use for my Claude Code agent?

It is recommended to use 'inherit' as the model setting. This allows the agent to use the same model as the parent process unless the task requires specific capabilities of Sonnet, Opus, or Haiku.

What is the difference between an agent and a command in Claude Code?

Agents are designed for autonomous, multi-step subprocesses that handle complex work independently, while commands are intended for specific, user-initiated actions.

Can I limit the tools an agent has access to?

Yes, you can use the optional 'tools' field in the YAML frontmatter to define an array of allowed tool names, following the principle of least privilege.

How do I ensure my agent triggers at the right time?

Effective triggering relies on a well-written description field in the agent's frontmatter, containing specific 'Use this agent when' conditions and 2-4 concrete usage examples.
