Can I limit the tools available to a specific subagent?

Yes, you can specify exactly which tools a subagent has access to in its markdown frontmatter, or omit the field to inherit all available tools.

Do I need to restart Claude Code after making changes?

Yes, you must either restart Claude Code or run the /agents command to reload the subagent list after creating, modifying, or deleting subagents.

What is the difference between user and project scope?

User scope (~/.claude/agents/) makes subagents available globally across your machine, while project scope (.claude/agents/) is specific to the current repository and takes priority.

Is it safe to delete subagents using this skill?

The skill includes a safety mechanism that requires explicit user confirmation via the AskUserQuestion tool before any deletion operation is performed.

Can I use different models for different subagents?

Absolutely. You can configure each subagent to use specific models like Sonnet, Opus, or Haiku, or set it to inherit the parent model.
