Subagent Dispatch Skill
Use call_subagent to delegate tasks to other agents, and wait_for_subagents to collect results from background runs.
When To Use
Delegate when at least one is true:
- The task is large enough to benefit from an isolated execution context
- Multiple independent tasks can run in parallel
- You need a specialized agent type (read-only explore, shell-heavy work)
Do not delegate when:
- The task is small and can be done directly
- The work requires constant access to the current conversation state
- Multiple sub-agents would write to the same file with no merge plan
- You cannot summarize the full context into a self-contained prompt
