What's Wrong?

Same as the following issue:
https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/6019

Fix was mentioned by user on #6019: needed to relogin using /login. Worked immediately after this.

I spent almost a half hour trying to figure out the cryptic error that had no additional information or recent reports.

Reporting this so devs know the bug is still present, ambiguous, and wasting peoples' time.

What Should Happen?

Claude should generate subagent from description. If an error occurs, it should include description of the actual underlying cause, not just a symptomatic error.
