TmuxSubagentCreation

What problem does it solve?

This Skill enables programmatic creation of Claude Code subagents by automating the interactive /agents TUI via tmux, removing the need for manual TUI interaction and enabling repeatable provisioning.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Automated subagent creation: Use tmux to drive Claude Code's /agents workflow and generate new subagents without manual clicks.
• Configurable provisioning: Support location choice (Project or Personal), generation method, and custom descriptions to tailor each subagent.
• Use Case: Batch-create multiple subagents with consistent settings in CI-like workflows or onboarding scripts.

Quick Start

Use the following sequence to create a new subagent via tmux automation:

1. Kill any existing session: tmux kill-session -t cc 2>/dev/null || true
2. Start new detached session with Claude Code: tmux new-session -d -s cc -x 120 -y 30 'claude'
3. Wait for startup: sleep 4
4. Navigate to /agents: tmux send-keys -t cc '/agents' Enter sleep 2
5. Select "Create new agent": tmux send-keys -t cc Enter sleep 2
6. Choose Location and Creation Method as described in steps: tmux send-keys -t cc Down Enter # Select Personal sleep 2 tmux send-keys -t cc Enter sleep 2
7. Enter Agent Description and save: DESCRIPTION="Your detailed agent description here..." tmux send-keys -t cc "$DESCRIPTION" tmux send-keys -t cc Enter sleep 15
8. Save and exit: tmux send-keys -t cc Enter sleep 2 tmux send-keys -t cc Escape sleep 1 tmux send-keys -t cc '/exit' Enter sleep 2 tmux kill-session -t cc
