Building AI Agents with Claude Code — Session 3: Subagents & Hooks

claude-code ai-agents context-engineering course

What You’ll Build

Specialist agents (schedule-optimizer, comms-reviewer) and an automated review hook that acts as an inline evaluator.

Key Patterns

  • Feature-specific agents — “schedule-optimizer” beats “Backend Engineer”
  • Subagents — specialists beat generalists
  • Tool deny-lists — least-privilege: agents get only the tools they need
  • Quality-gate hooks — hooks as inline evaluators, not just loggers
