QuestionQ14

Context Management & Reliability

Production monitoring indicates that follow-up queries such as “summarize what we learned about market trends” consistently require more than 40 seconds. Investigation shows that the coordinator launches the synthesis subagent for every summarization request and passes it 80K+ tokens of accumulated findings. The coordinator already retains these findings in its context from coordinating the research. What is the most effective approach to improve response time for these follow-up summaries?

Explanation

Handling routine summarization in the coordinator avoids the latency and token-processing overhead of spawning a synthesis subagent and retransmitting 80K+ tokens that the coordinator already has in context. Subagent spawning can be reserved for tasks that need additional or complex analysis.
