📬 Subscribe to my Substack ➡ https://alexmcfarland.substack.com/ 🚀 The Co-Writer System ➡ https://waitlist.writerops.ai Resources and downloads mentioned in my videos are available for paid Substack members. --- Subagents are one of the most powerful features in Claude Code—and nobody's showing you how to use them for writing. In this tutorial, I'm showing you how to build your first AI writing agent from scratch inside Claude Code—and I'm giving you the exact agent and skill files I use. This is for newsletter writers, marketing professionals, ghostwriters, content creators, solopreneurs, and anyone who wants to build AI writing systems that actually work without starting from scratch every time. The newsletter writer agent and thought leadership skill are available in my Substack. ⏳ TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Intro 0:46 What are subagents 1:52 Key benefits of subagents 2:19 Orchestration agents vs fat agents 3:00 My system setup and folder structure 3:58 Creating the agent with /agent 5:03 Writing the system prompt 8:04 Adding the description 9:37 Selecting tools and model 10:56 Adding the thought leadership skill 13:07 Live demo: writing a newsletter 17:02 Results and what we built #claudecode #aiwriting #subagents #writingwithAI #contextengineering #substack #newsletter #ghostwriting #aitools #claudeai #anthropic #writingsystem #aiagents #contentcreation
