Agent Development for Claude Code Plugins

Overview

Agents are autonomous subprocesses that handle complex, multi-step tasks independently. Understanding agent structure, triggering conditions, and system prompt design enables creating powerful autonomous capabilities.

Key concepts:

  • Agents are FOR autonomous work, commands are FOR user-initiated actions
  • Markdown file format with YAML frontmatter
  • Triggering via description field with examples
  • System prompt defines agent behavior
  • Model and color customization
