Orchestrating Subagents

Core Principles

• Always suggest subagent invocation when task matches their expertise
• User has final decision on invocation
• Prefer multiple parallel invocations for independent tasks with strict scopes
• ALWAYS define: files to modify, files NOT to touch, specific task boundaries
