Codex Introduces Two-Tier Sub-Agents: Collaborative vs. Leaf
pvncher · x · 2026-08-16
The tweet outlines two tiers of sub-agents within Codex:
- Full Collaborative Agents (e.g., Sol & Terra): Capable of messaging each other and recursively delegating tasks.
- Leaf Agents (e.g., Luna & older models): Purely for delegation without cross-agent coordination capabilities.
The author suggests getting creative with orchestration prompts to leverage these distinct agent types.
