Subagents

For complex tasks, the Mythex agent may spawn nested agent runs (subagents) to investigate or implement in parallel. Workspace chat with live preview

What you see

  • A subagent tab can open above the chat when nested work is active
  • The tab shows that run’s transcript
  • Subagent tabs are read-only — you do not type into them

What you control

You cannot manually start a subagent. The main agent decides when to use them. You steer the parent chat as usual (Build / Plan / Ask, Stop, follow-ups). Close a subagent tab with × when you are done watching; the main thread and project files stay.
