Thanks, those don't deterministically prevent the main loop from using tools thought, unless I'm wrong that's just prompting the main agent on when to use specialized sub agents
replyyou can configure tools, thinking, permissions et al on a per agent basis in the frontmatter, or via config (which they use in the examples), either location is valid, merging order (?)
replythe main agent would be very different, basically an orchestrator, and you are "loop engineering" it, and turning off all the things for this main agent besides being able to run subagents
