SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Route simple shell, repository inspection, and project test work to the haiku-shell subagent. This separation helps avoid main-agent overhead for command-heavy, read-only tasks.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Routing guidance to delegate read-only, command-centric work to a lightweight subagent.
  • Handles tasks like grep, ls, find, git status, git log, git diff, file lookups, and quick test executions without edits.
  • Use case: quickly survey a codebase to summarize file changes or locate a symbol, then report findings.

Quick Start

Route a command-heavy shell task to the haiku-shell subagent for fast, cheap results.

FAQPage Schema
How do I reduce main-agent overhead when running read-only shell commands like grep and git status?

Delegating read-heavy shell tasks to a lightweight subagent handles repository inspection commands like git log, git diff, and find. It returns exact findings and concise failures to minimize main-agent workload during codebase surveys.

What is the best way to run lightweight tests without edits using a command-line subagent?

Routing command-heavy test executions without edits to a haiku-shell subagent handles the task. It delegates lightweight test runs using Task, Read, Grep, and Glob tools, returning concise failures for summarization.

Can I use a subagent for repository inspection tasks like file lookups and git diff?

Yes, routing repository inspection tasks like file lookups, git diff, and git log to a subagent is supported. It delegates these read-heavy command-line operations to return exact findings and concise failures for summarization.

Does the haiku-shell routing approach work for locating symbols and summarizing file changes?

Yes, routing shell tasks to a subagent works for locating symbols and summarizing file changes. It delegates read-only repository inspection commands like grep and find to return exact findings for codebase surveys.

What are the limitations of routing shell tasks to a subagent?

Routing shell tasks to a subagent is limited to read-heavy, command-centric work without edits. It delegates lightweight repository inspection and test executions, returning exact findings, but does not handle file modifications.
