Subagents and web search in Claude Code
Blog post from Ollama
Ollama has introduced new features, including subagents and web search capabilities, in Claude Code, enhancing its functionality without requiring MCP servers or API keys. Users can initiate these features through commands like "ollama launch claude --model minimax-m2.5:cloud," which work across various models on Ollama's cloud platform. Subagents allow for parallel task execution, such as file search and code exploration, improving productivity in coding sessions by maintaining focus and reducing context noise. Certain models can automatically activate subagents, while users can also manually prompt their creation for specific tasks, such as auditing security issues or mapping database queries. Additionally, the built-in web search within Ollama's Anthropic compatibility layer provides real-time information retrieval, supporting research activities that subagents can conduct concurrently. This integration allows users to explore topics like release notes or competitor pricing strategies and return with actionable insights, supported by recommended cloud models like minimax-m2.5, glm-5, and kimi-k2.5.
