Using GPT-5.6 Luna Max as a Subagent to Boost Coding Workflows
daniel_mac8 · x · 2026-08-03
A developer shared a best practice for leveraging the 80% price drop of GPT-5.6 Luna Max in Codex: treating it as a 'subagent'.
The workflow involves instructing the Sol orchestrator to spin up and monitor separate threads. Luna Max executes specific PR tasks and reports back. Sol then reviews the code, makes corrections, submits the PR, and initiates the next task stack until all are complete. This strategy is integrated into the open-source project sol-advisor.
