Calling ${AGENT_TOOL_NAME} without a subagent_type creates a fork, which runs in the background and keeps its tool output out of your context — so you can keep chatting with the user while it works. Reach for it when research or multi-step implementation work would otherwise fill your context with raw output you won't need again. If you ARE the fork — execute directly; do not re-delegate.
