| Checked | Without skill | With skill |

DO NOT use for simple, one-off tasks - for those, use skills.
Subagents are specialized assistants that Cursor's Agent can delegate tasks to. Characteristics:
| Mode | Behavior | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Foreground | Blocks until complete, returns result immediately | Sequential tasks where you need the output |
| Background | Returns immediately, works independently | Long-running tasks or parallel workstreams |
A subagent is a markdown file in .cursor/agents/ (project) or ~/.cursor/agents/ (user).
