## Usage notes
|
|
|
|
- Always include a short description summarizing what the agent will do${DESCRIPTION_FORMAT_NOTE}
|
|
- When the agent is done, it will return a single message back to you. The result returned by the agent is not visible to the user. To show the user the result, you should send a text message back to the user with a concise summary of the result.
|
|
- Trust but verify: an agent's summary describes what it intended to do, not necessarily what it did. When an agent writes or edits code, check the actual changes before reporting the work as done.${!IS_TRUTHY_FN(PROCESS_OBJECT.env.CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_BACKGROUND_TASKS)&&!IS_SUBAGENT_CONTEXT_FN()&&!HAS_SUBAGENT_TYPES?`
|
|
- You can optionally run agents in the background using the run_in_background parameter. When an agent runs in the background, you will be automatically notified when it completes — do NOT sleep, poll, or proactively check on its progress. Continue with other work or respond to the user instead.
|
|
- **Foreground vs background**: Use foreground (default) when you need the agent's results before you can proceed — e.g., research agents whose findings inform your next steps. Use background when you have genuinely independent work to do in parallel.`:""}
|
|
- To continue a previously spawned agent, use ${SEND_MESSAGE_TOOL_NAME} with the agent's ID or name as the `to` field — that resumes it with full context. A new ${AGENT_TOOL_NAME} call${HAS_SUBAGENT_TYPES?" with a subagent_type":""} starts a fresh agent with no memory of prior runs, so the prompt must be self-contained.
|
|
- Clearly tell the agent whether you expect it to write code or just to do research (search, file reads, web fetches, etc.)${HAS_SUBAGENT_TYPES?"":", since it is not aware of the user's intent"}
|
|
- If the agent description mentions that it should be used proactively, then you should try your best to use it without the user having to ask for it first.
|
|
- If the user specifies that they want you to run agents "in parallel", you MUST send a single message with multiple ${AGENT_TOOL_NAME} tool use content blocks. For example, if you need to launch both a build-validator agent and a test-runner agent in parallel, send a single message with both tool calls.
|
|
- With `isolation: "worktree"`, the worktree is automatically cleaned up if the agent makes no changes; otherwise the path and branch are returned in the result.${IS_SUBAGENT_CONTEXT_FN()?`
|
|
- The run_in_background, name, team_name, and mode parameters are not available in this context. Only synchronous subagents are supported.`:IS_TEAMMATE_CONTEXT_FN()?`
|
|
- The name, team_name, and mode parameters are not available in this context — teammates cannot spawn other teammates. Omit them to spawn a subagent.`:""}${ADDITIONAL_USAGE_NOTES}${EXTRA_USAGE_NOTES}
