Subagents

Delegate bounded work into separate context windows, then synthesize the result.

Active scenario: isolate. Verbose work stays inside the worker context; the parent gets a compact result.

Metrics: context preserved: high; parallelism: low; coordination cost: low.

Nodes: Parent, control: The main thread keeps the goal, constraints, and final synthesis. Researcher, worker: A task-specific subagent reads logs, docs, or tests without flooding the parent. Summary, state: Only findings, evidence, and unresolved questions return.
