A news crawling pipeline has been optimized by splitting its tasks across multiple parallel sub-agents, significantly reducing processing time. Previously, fetching 51 sources sequentially within a single agent turn led to exceeding Claude Code's background task wait ceiling. The new approach divides sources into smaller batches for parallel execution, with each sub-agent returning structured facts rather than full text, thereby keeping context windows manageable and cutting wall-clock time by approximately two-thirds.
