Claude's New Sub-Agents: Build and Manage Your Own AI Team

What if your coding assistant could build and manage an entire team of AI agents for you? Just a few days ago, Claude Code introduced something game-changing: Sub-agents, and minds are already blown.

Beyond a Coder: An AI Orchestrator

Claude Code is no longer just a smart coder; it's an orchestrator. By using the /agents command, you can spin up your own AI dev team customized to your workflow.

For instance, you might need: - A research agent that gathers sources. - Another agent to summarize the findings. - One more to turn those insights into working code.

You can chain them together or loop them using simple slash commands. Claude lets you build several complex agentic systems in mere minutes.

Practical Implementations

A great example is a multi-agent research system. 1. One agent finds the data. 2. The next analyzes it. 3. Another writes the code. 4. A fourth agent tests and refines it.

All of this happens inside Claude without ever switching tools.

Another powerful implementation is an evaluator loop, featuring an agent that codes, one that tests, and another that reviews. It's fast, it's reliable, and it's like having a full AI team inside a single chat window.

A Tool for Everyone

This is the most efficient way to build and experiment with various agentic workflows. And it's not just for developers; numerous professionals like writers, analysts, and marketers can leverage this. Essentially, anyone can use this powerful feature.
