What you'll learn

What Claude agents and subagents are

An agent runs a task on its own. A subagent is a helper it hands part of the work to.

When one skill is enough, and when you need a team of agents

Tell which jobs a single skill can handle, and which ones call for several agents working together.

How one skill runs a whole team of agents

One skill plans the work, hands pieces to several agents at once, and pulls their results back together.

Meet the four agents: Oracle, Hermes, Athena, Scribe

Oracle plans, Hermes gathers sources, Athena fact-checks, and Scribe writes the report.

Why this topic matters

Running several agents in parallel grew up in coding, where developers split a build across a team. Packaged as a skill, that same orchestration does non-technical knowledge work just as well, like research or a competitive brief. We take apart a working skill with 4 agents, and run it live, so you see how it all fits. All run in Claude code.
