AGENTS

This repository allows sub-agent delegation for parallel implementation work.

Default Sub-Agent Configuration

When spawning sub-agents for this repo:

• model: gpt-5.4
• reasoning effort: xhigh

Context Strategy

Sub-agents should use this context policy:

1. First attempt with fork_context: true
2. If the sub-agent fails due to context-window pressure, retry with fork_context: false
3. When retrying with fork_context: false, provide a compact task brief and explicitly list the local files the sub-agent must read first

Practical Guidance

• Prefer fewer, higher-quality sub-agents over many shallow ones
• Give each sub-agent a clearly isolated write scope
• Keep shared integration files owned by the main thread whenever possible
• If a sub-agent needs a shared dependency or a shared export change, have it report that back rather than editing unrelated files

Priority

If there is any conflict between older default delegation habits and this file:

• follow this file for sub-agent model selection
• follow this file for sub-agent reasoning effort
• follow this file for context fallback behavior
