# Implement Sub-Agents

Create or update agent files under `agents/` with explicit role boundaries, model/tool settings, and delegation patterns.

## Workflow

1. Define the sub-agent role and scope boundaries.
2. Author/update agent markdown with valid frontmatter.
3. Set tool/model/permission configuration based on least privilege.
4. Validate frontmatter and basic agent file shape.
5. Connect with related skills/hooks only when required.
