Agents in Action

Agents spawn automatically based on your request:

You say: "The login is broken, users get 401 errors"

[debugger agent activated]
→ Checking auth middleware... found issue
→ Token validation uses wrong secret in production
→ Fix: Update AUTH_SECRET in .env.production

You say: "Review my changes"

[code-reviewer agent activated]
→ Analyzing 3 files changed...
✓ Logic is correct
⚠ Missing null check on line 42
⚠ Consider adding rate limiting to this endpoint

You say: "Add authentication to the API"

[orchestrator agent activated]
→ Breaking down into subtasks:
  1. Design auth schema (spawning architect)
  2. Implement JWT middleware
  3. Add login/register endpoints
  4. Write tests (spawning test-architect)
  5. Update API docs (spawning docs-writer)

Skills in Action

Skills provide domain knowledge automatically:

You ask: "How should I structure the payment service?"

[designing-architecture skill applied]
→ Recommending hexagonal architecture
→ Payment providers as adapters
→ Core domain isolated from infrastructure

You ask: "Make this endpoint faster"

[optimizing-performance skill applied]
→ Adding database indexes
→ Implementing response caching
→ Using pagination for large results

Hooks in Action

Hooks run automatically on events:

Security block (pre-edit):

⛔ BLOCKED: Potential secret detected
   File: src/config.ts, Line 5
   Pattern: API key (sk-...)

   Remove the secret and use environment variables.

Auto-format (post-edit):

✓ Formatted with prettier: src/components/Button.tsx
✓ Formatted with black: scripts/deploy.py

Desktop notifications:

🔔 "Claude needs input" - when waiting for your response
🔔 "Task complete" - when finished
