What problem does it solve? Complex coding tasks often exceed what a single agent context can handle well, requiring focused delegation for recon, planning, implementation, and review without losing orchestrator control. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Builtin agent roster: Delegate to scout, researcher, planner, worker, reviewer, context-builder, oracle, or delegate agents, each with a focused role and tool allowlist. - Flexible execution modes: Run single agents, forked-context continuations, parallel task batches with concurrency limits, or sequential chains where each step receives the previous output. - Intercom coordination: Subagents can ask the orchestrator blocking questions via contact_supervisor and message peer subagents via intercom for collaborative decisions. - Monitoring and steering: Inspect running subagents with peek, redirect them mid-run with steer, and interrupt or resume runs as needed. - Use Case: Dispatch a scout to gather context on an unfamiliar module, chain it into a planner for an implementation plan, then hand off to a worker while a reviewer runs adversarial review in parallel. ## Quick Start Use the subagent tool to run a scout agent that gathers context on the authentication module, then chain a planner and worker to implement the refactor.
