What Subagent is
Subagent is a skill published in the ethanhq/cc-fleet repository on GitHub, which has about 213 stars. The repository describes itself as: “🚢 Run Claude Code's ⚙️ Dynamic Workflows, 👥 Agent Teams & ⚡ Subagents on any third-party model — DeepSeek · GLM · Kimi · Qwen … or your Codex subscription. No Anthropic subscription needed. | 🚢 让 Claude Code 的 ⚙️ Dynamic Workflow、👥 Agent Team、⚡ Subagent 用上任意第三方模型 — DeepSeek · GLM · Kimi · Qwen…… 或你的 Codex 订阅,无需 Claude 订阅”
A skill is a folder with a SKILL.md file: frontmatter with a name and a description, followed by instructions Claude follows. Claude loads a skill automatically when a task matches its description, and you can also run it directly with a slash and its name.
Skills work in Claude Code and in Claude Cowork, which makes Subagent a portable way to give Claude the same method everywhere.
How to install Subagent
Claude Code
- Download the subagent folder from the repository.
- Save it as ~/.claude/skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md for all projects, or .claude/skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md for one project.
- Claude loads it automatically when a task matches; you can also run it with / and its name.
Claude Cowork
- Zip the skill folder so SKILL.md sits at the top level of the folder.
- Open Customize → Skills, click +, then upload the ZIP.
- Start a task that matches the description, or call it by name with /.

🚢 cc-fleet
🤖 Plug any third-party model into Claude Code's ⚙️ Dynamic Workflows, 👥 Agent Teams, and ⚡ Subagents — from DeepSeek · GLM · Kimi · Qwen … to your Codex subscription, with your main session's auth untouched; no Claude subscription needed to run a full Claude Code on any provider 🚀
English · 简体中文
Claude Code's multi-agent orchestration — Dynamic Workflows, Agent Teams, Subagents — only runs Anthropic's own models. cc-fleet lets any model with an Anthropic- or OpenAI-compatible API, even your Codex subscription, join as a workflow leaf, a long-lived teammate, or a one-shot subagent — scheduled by your main session, with the same identity and capabilities as a native Claude agent.
Every third-party worker is a real claude process with its LLM backend swapped to the provider, so Claude Code drives it exactly like a native agent. Your main session's own auth (OAuth subscription or API key) is untouched, and provider keys never enter env, argv, or shell history — zero leak risk.
Two steps to get going: one-line install, register a provider. Then state your intent in Claude Code with /workflow, /team, or /subagent — or just describe the task in plain language, and Claude figures out the rest.
No Claude subscription? ccf run starts an interactive session driven by that provider — the same claude you know, just running on the provider's model.
cc-fleet can be driven from Codex too: a Codex plugin gives a Codex session the same fan-out — cc-fleet subagent and cc-fleet workflow, with the claude engine as the worker. (Teammates stay Claude-Code-only.)
Install
0. Install Claude Code first — cc-fleet drives the official claude CLI, so install it if you don't have it yet (skip if claude is already on your PATH):
macOS / Linux:
curl -fsSL https://claude.ai/install.sh | bashWindows (PowerShell):
irm https://claude.ai/install.ps1 | iex1. Install cc-fleet with the one-line script (recommended) — one command does it all: downloads and verifies the CLI, puts it on your PATH (with a ccf alias, so ccf launches it from then on), and installs the Claude Code plugin (skill + session hook) via the marketplace. Ready to use right after:
macOS / Linux:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ethanhq/cc-fleet/main/install.sh | shWindows (PowerShell):
irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ethanhq/cc-fleet/main/install.ps1 | iexCodex plugin — to drive cc-fleet from a Codex session, after the install above run codex plugin marketplace add ethanhq/cc-fleet then codex plugin add cc-fleet.
> Other channels (npm / go install / Releases / source) and adding the Claude Code plugin, installer overrides, and requirements & maintenance live in Install & maintenance.
Common commands:
ccf # open the interactive TUI
ccf doctor # health check: dependencies, providers, plugin status
ccf update # self-update by install channel + refresh the plugin
ccf uninstall --all # remove the binary and plugin tooOnce installed, run ccf to register a provider and start delegating.
Quickstart
🔌 Provider management — one API key, connected
- ccf opens the TUI; choose Add provider
- Pick any Anthropic / OpenAI-compatible vendor
- Enter the API key and default model; optionally an effort level and a Claude permission mode
- Save and go; add more models and toggle them in the list, s sets the default, d deletes
Before you install
- Read the whole file first. Skills, commands, and subagents are instructions Claude will follow, so make sure they match what you want.
- Check which tools, scripts, or MCP servers it uses. Local servers and scripts run with your permissions.
- Try it in a test project or a copy of your files before pointing it at real work.
- Pin the version you tested, and review changes before updating.
- Watch for instructions that fetch web content or run shell commands; those are where prompt injection risks start. See our prompt injection guide.
