If you try to open a Subagent’s chat after it has appeared but before it has started working, the chat may be empty and the statuses may not update until the Subagent finishes working.
Steps to Reproduce
Ask the Agent to launch the Subagent. You’ll likely need to pass a long prompt to the Subagent.
Try clicking the Subagent’s call element before its status changes for the first time.
But what I showed in the screenshots is something new that’s appeared in Nightly in the last 2-3 days. Subagent statuses in Agent chat are broken, and the Subagent chat doesn’t open until they complete the task, making monitoring Subagents impossible.
Or maybe this bug just showed up for me today and decided to stick around.
Subagents’s end-of-work time is also broken, and it starts counting from the moment the chat with them is opened.
I discovered something funny: you can ask Agent-2 to find the transcript of a running Subagent, and it will give you a link to open the Subagent that won’t open from the chat with the Agent-Parent
