LangChain details subagent forking as context engineering trick in deepagents
LangChain · x · 2026-09-09

Subagents enable parallel reasoning and context isolation, letting a supervisor delegate work without stuffing its own context window, and the "forking" subagents trick is now built into deepagents.
