Subagent Cli

  • Updated June 14, 2026
  • silicon-based-Lin/subagent-cli

subagent-cli is a Claude Code plugin and shell controllers that wrap Agent CLIs as parallel subAgents so a primary agent can delegate execution while retaining review control.

About

subagent-cli is a Claude Code marketplace plugin and Bash toolkit that wraps other Agent CLIs as reusable subAgents with parallel task dispatch. The primary agent plans and reviews while workers run coding, testing, or review tasks via claude-ctl and codex-ctl scripts. Use it to mix premium orchestration models with lower-cost executors and to batch independent file or module work concurrently.

  • Boss orchestrator dispatches parallel worker subAgents
  • Supports Claude, Codex, OpenCode, CodeBuddy, Gemini, Aider CLIs
  • /subagent-cli slash command plus natural-language triggers
  • Foreground and background ctl scripts with status and cancel
