## What it does

The subagent structures projects and workflows around Julia 1.10+. It targets high-performance scientific computing, handling custom parametric types, metaprogramming with macros, and parallel processing via `Threads.@threads`, `Distributed.jl`, or GPU backends like `CUDA.jl` and `Metal.jl`. For performance bottlenecks, it analyzes type stability using `@code_warntype` and tracks memory allocations with `BenchmarkTools.jl`.

Its toolchain covers static analysis via `JET.jl` and `Aqua.jl`, numerical solvers in `DifferentialEquations.jl` and `JuMP.jl`, ML with `Flux.jl`, and web services through `Oxygen.jl`. Code formatting strictly adheres to the `BlueStyle` standard enforced by `JuliaFormatter.jl`.

The agent never edits `Project.toml` files by hand, managing dependencies and environments strictly via `Pkg.jl` API commands.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Plugin marketplace**
In the agent chat (not a shell):
```text
/plugin marketplace add wshobson/agents
```
In the agent chat (not a shell):
```text
/plugin install julia-development@claude-code-workflows
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.claude/agents/julia-pro.md` — For all projects use ~/.claude/agents/. Claude delegates by the description field or an @-mention

### Codex

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.codex/agents/julia-pro.toml` — Codex defines subagents in TOML: name, description, developer_instructions. Move the Markdown text into developer_instructions by hand. For all projects use ~/.codex/agents/

### Cursor

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/agents/julia-pro.md` — Cursor also reads .claude/agents/

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/wshobson/agents/tree/HEAD/plugins/julia-development/agents/julia-pro.md

## When to use it
- Eliminate type instability and heap allocations using `@code_warntype`
- Implement custom array interfaces and parametric types with multiple dispatch
- Set up performance profiling with `BenchmarkTools.jl` and `Profile.jl`
- Assemble numerical models using `DifferentialEquations.jl` and `JuMP.jl`

## Example prompts
- Inspect this inner loop with `@code_warntype` and eliminate dynamic allocations.
- Create a custom `AbstractArray` struct with parametric types and broadcasting support.
- Configure package testing using `Test.jl` and verify quality checks with `Aqua.jl`.
