Iterative Retrieval Pattern

Solves the "context problem" in multi-agent workflows where subagents don't know what context they need until they start working.

When to Activate

  • Spawning subagents that need codebase context they cannot predict upfront
  • Building multi-agent workflows where context is progressively refined
  • Encountering "context too large" or "missing context" failures in agent tasks
  • Designing RAG-like retrieval pipelines for code exploration
  • Optimizing token usage in agent orchestration

The Problem

Subagents are spawned with limited context. They don't know:

  • Which files contain relevant code
  • What patterns exist in the codebase
  • What terminology the project uses
