Subagents in the SDK

 <Note>
   Even without defining custom subagents, Claude can spawn the built-in `general-purpose` subagent. This is useful for delegating research or exploration tasks without creating specialized agents. Include `Agent` in `allowedTools` so these invocations auto-approve without a permission prompt.
 
-  A call to the Agent tool that leaves out `subagent_type` gets this built-in `general-purpose` subagent. If you disable the built-in subagents with [`CLAUDE_AGENT_SDK_DISABLE_BUILTIN_AGENTS=1`](/docs/en/env-vars), there is nothing to fall back to. Such a call then fails with `subagent_type is required: the general-purpose agent is not available in this session`, followed by the names of your subagents. Before TypeScript SDK v0.3.235 (Python SDK: bundled Claude Code earlier than v2.1.235), it failed with `Agent type 'general-purpose' not found` instead.
+  When Claude calls the Agent tool without a `subagent_type`, it gets this built-in `general-purpose` subagent. If you set [`CLAUDE_AGENT_SDK_DISABLE_BUILTIN_AGENTS=1`](/docs/en/env-vars), that default is gone too. Such a call then fails with `subagent_type is required: the general-purpose agent is not available in this session`. The message ends with the subagent types that are still available. Before TypeScript SDK v0.3.235 (Python SDK: bundled Claude Code before v2.1.235), the same call failed with `Agent type 'general-purpose' not found`.
