Cat steps on keyboard, wakes main agent that discovers subagent stuck 10 hours
OwariDa · x · 2026-09-22
A developer shares that their cat stepping on the keyboard woke up the main project agent, which then checked its subagent's progress — and discovered it had been grinding away for 10 hours on a dead end.
Beyond the joke, it highlights a real pitfall of multi-agent workflows: a stuck subagent may go unnoticed for hours without an external trigger to prompt a check-in.
