0:00 In this video, we're looking at sub agents and background agents. Understanding how sub agents work and knowing how to run specialized agents in the background is a critical skill to have, whether you're vibe coding or if you're using agentic coding as an experienced developer. So, after this video, you'll know exactly what sub agents are and how to create your own specialized agents. And towards the end of the video, I'll show you my workflow for implementing complex solutions. Let's jump in. So in Claude code, I'm
0:31 actually going to switch over to planning mode for a second and let's ask the agent, hey there, please can you list all the sub agents that you have access to? C already has access to a few built-in sub agents. So it's got access to a bash agent. And this agent is a specialist for running bash commands like git operations, command execution, and other terminal tasks. I'm just going to hide this file explorer so we can actually see what we're doing. It also has access to this general purpose agent
