Documentation

README

Excerpt

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

When to Use

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
