Improved Subagent System Prompt

Entry
JSON All of v2.1.69
EntryKind: in v2.1.69,
ChangesSection of the release

Subagent prompts have been refined:

  • Clearer instruction formatting with separate lines for avoiding emojis and colons before tool calls
  • Different response expectations based on agent role: detailed writeup for some, concise reports for others
  • Agents now use absolute paths in their final responses
  • Verification agent type added for post-task validation
  • Teammates explicitly cannot spawn other teammates (flat team roster)
Evidence

Subagent improvements (search for "Teammates cannot spawn other teammates", "NOTE: You just closed out 3+ tasks")

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
