subagent-templates

subagent-templates is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from floomhq/moto. It costs 75 tokens per session (788 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of templates for starting and coordinating multiple coding agents. It covers splitting independent work, assigning specialized checks, and combining the results.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for parallel security reviews, separate analysis of code areas, independent quality checks, or other work that can be safely divided between agents.
Why use it?
It gives teams repeatable ways to divide large tasks and obtain independent verification without losing track of responsibilities.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

subagent-templates scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 7d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Subagent Templates

When to Use Subagents

Good uses:

  • Independent tasks that can run in parallel (QA checks, analysis, validation)
  • Tasks requiring fresh context/perspective (reader testing, independent review)
  • Large workloads that can be split by domain or file
  • Verification tasks that should be independent from the author

Bad uses:

  • Tasks with sequential dependencies (B must run after A finishes)
  • Tasks requiring shared state that's hard to merge
  • Simple tasks where coordination overhead exceeds benefit

Pattern 1: Parallel Analysis

Split a large analysis into independent slices, run in parallel, merge results.

TASK: Analyze codebase for security issues

SUBAGENTS:
- Agent A: Check authentication and authorization code
- Agent B: Check API input validation and sanitization
- Agent C: Check environment variables and secrets handling
- Agent D: Check dependency vulnerabilities

MERGE: Collect all findings, deduplicate, prioritize by severity

Pattern 2: Independent Verification

Have a fresh agent verify work without the context bias of the original agent.

TASK: Verify the PDF skill QA

SUBAGENT PROMPT:
"You are a QA engineer reviewing this slide presentation for issues.
Assume there ARE problems - your job is to find them.
Here is the content: [content]

Check for:
- Missing content
- Overlapping elements
- Text overflow
- Leftover placeholder text

Report ALL issues found, even minor ones."

Pattern 3: Parallel Implementation

Split implementation across files/modules, implement in parallel, merge.

TASK: Add dark mode support

SUBAGENTS:
- Agent A: Update color tokens and CSS variables
- Agent B: Update component themes (buttons, cards, inputs)
- Agent C: Update charts and data visualizations

MERGE: Review for consistency across all changes

Pattern 4: Research and Synthesis

Multiple agents research different aspects, main agent synthesizes.

TASK: Evaluate three database options

SUBAGENTS:
- Agent A: Research PostgreSQL - performance, pricing, hosting options
- Agent B: Research PlanetScale - performance, pricing, limitations
- Agent C: Research Supabase - performance, pricing, auth integration

MAIN AGENT: Synthesize findings into recommendation

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

subagent-templates is a skill published in the GitHub repository floomhq/moto (32 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 75 tokens to every session and 788 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
