Not every AI task needs an agent.
That's surprisingly easy to forget when agents are everywhere.
By Chapter 7 of Claude Code Beyond the Prompt, prompts, skills, workflows, agents, subagents, and connected workflows are all on the table. That means you need to know when to choose which. The book follows a well-known principle: Keep it simple.
I teach you to use the smallest structure that fits the work. Why? Because using an agent when a prompt would do does not make the system more advanced. Instead, it increases the surface area you have to understand, supervise, and maintain.
Chapter 7 gives you the framework so your architecture doesn't become bigger than the problem.
Continue your AI journey with Claude Code Beyond the Prompt. It is available from Packt. If you are moving from prompting into reusable AI workflows, this is the problem I wrote it to help you solve.
