Sub-agents - Humboldt

Built in

Kind	Tools
`explore`	Read-only: find things out
`general`	Everything: an independent piece of work, edits included

The model chooses when to delegate. Several run at once, up to five. A sub-agent never asks you anything.

Your own

One markdown file per agent under .hum/agents/, scanned recursively. Files in .claude/agents/ and .codex/agents/ are read the same way, and ~/.hum/agents/ holds your personal ones. The nearest file wins a name.

---
name: code-reviewer
description: Reviews a change for correctness and style. Use after edits.
tools: read_file, grep, glob
maxTurns: 12

You are a reviewer. Report findings with file and line. Never edit.

Field	Meaning
`name`	The kind the model delegates to. Defaults to the file name
`description`	When to use it. The model reads this to choose
`tools`	Allowlist: `read_file`, `write_file`, `edit_file`, `shell`, `grep`, `glob`, `web_fetch`, `web_search`. Claude Code’s names are accepted
`disallowedTools`	Denylist
`maxTurns`	Ceiling for one run
`model`	Recorded, not acted on. Every sub-agent runs on the route below

The body is the agent’s role, given to it whole. An agent whose tools can edit is refused while approvals are on.

[model]
agents = "deepseek-v4-flash"     # the route every sub-agent runs on; unset = the session's model

Every sub-agent run is on the session transcript, with the file that defined it.
