imo cramming invisible subagents are entirely wrong, models suffer information collapse as they will all tend to agree with each other and then produce complete garbage. Good for Anthropic though as that's metered token usage.

Instead, orchestrate all agents visibly together, even when there is hierarchy. Messages should be auditable. Other tools are significantly better at this (e.g. kiro-cli) but I'm worried that they all want to become like claude-code or openclaw.

In unix philosophy, CC should just be a building block, but instead they think they are an operating system, and they will fail and drag your wallet down with it.
