SoPhi agent harness integrates subagents as tools

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

The SoPhi agent harness has been updated to allow subagents to function as tools, simplifying the delegation process. Instead of creating new core primitives, the system treats subagent calls as a specialized tool that takes a longer time to execute. This design maintains the existing AgentLoop structure, allowing the main agent to delegate tasks without needing to understand the internal workings of the subagent, similar to how a general contractor hires a subcontractor.
