Yeah, since they introduced (possibly async) subagents, I've had my main claude instance act as a manager overseeing implementation agents, keeping it's context clean, and ensuring everything goes to plan in the highest quality way.

yep this is exactly how I use the main agent too, I explicitly instruct to only ever use background async subagents. Not enough people understand that the claude code harness is event driven now and will wake up whenever these subagent completion events happen.
