Round 1 traded one teardown ordering problem for another. The observer now splits capture from emission, which satisfies both consumers at once: - Terminal facts are captured while the child is still registered, so consumers that resolve it for the child's log and scope still work. - The edge is emitted only after handle disposal settles, so a rejecting scoped cleanup is reported as a failed epoch instead of a successful one. Also: - Keep the Activation in the map until disposal settles. Removing it first let a racing followup() see no Activation and cold-resume into the still-registered agent, and let a concurrent forest drain skip a still-disposing child and release its parent first. - Derive terminal telemetry from this epoch's event suffix rather than the whole session, so a cold resume whose prompt is blocked no longer reports the previous epoch's answer and turn reason. - Cancel the ACP bridge's own prompts before awaiting the descendant drain: a drain can block on persistence, and the top-level agents must not keep running model and tool work for its whole duration.
subagent/ — subagent capability family
English | 中文
The subagent seam: an agent delegating work to a child agent. Like the bash and llm families this is a capability seam (see capability seams) — but with one defining difference: multiple provider implementations coexist in one context, registered by name, rather than the single-implementation bash shape. The registry mirrors the LLM adapter registry.
| Package | Role | ctx key |
|---|---|---|
subagent/ |
Subagent service: named-provider registry, vocabulary, durable descriptor, and continuable-child orchestration | ctx.subagents |
subagent-inprocess/ |
Shared in-process run driver (no provider; one cleanup effect per run) | — |
subagent-spawn/ |
In-process backend: a fresh child agent, with cold resume | (registers on ctx.subagents) |
subagent-fork/ |
In-process backend: a child seeded with the parent's completed-turn prefix, with cold resume | (registers on ctx.subagents) |
subagent-acp/ |
Out-of-process backend: a child agent in a spawned subprocess, driven over ACP (one-shot) | (registers on ctx.subagents) |
subagent-dsh-sdk/ |
Out-of-process backend: a child harness runtime in a spawned subprocess, driven over stdio JSON-RPC through the TypeScript SDK client | (registers on ctx.subagents) |
tool-subagent/ |
Model-facing subagent delegation tool over ctx.subagents |
(registers on ctx.tools) |
tool-subagent-control/ |
The optional, globally named send_message follow-up tool over ctx.subagents |
(registers on ctx.tools) |
The interface and continuation orchestration live at subagent/subagent/. One-shot provider start dispatch stays independent of persistence; an internal continuation manager owns each durable continuable child as one Session plus at most one process-local Activation, binding no Task, and exists only while the Agent service is present, resolving persistence per continuation operation. The in-process subagent-spawn / subagent-fork backends share the subagent-inprocess driver (a library with no provider of its own — both depend on it, neither on the other), and the out-of-process subagent-acp / subagent-dsh-sdk backends spawn their children through the subprocess/ seam (the shared credential scrub, tree-scoped teardown, and dispose ladder). Tests replace only the child boundary with package-local fixtures.
