Pull request overview
This PR updates the Subagents guide to document how subagent tool calls are surfaced while a subagent is running (in Desktop and CLI), aligning docs with the new streaming behavior.
Changes:
- Tweaks the introductory description of subagents for clarity.
- Adds a note and example showing where to see streaming subagent tool call records (Desktop “Logs” section and CLI output).
| While subagents are working, a record of their tool calls appears in the `Logs` section of the subagent call in goose Desktop or is printed in the goose CLI output. For example: | ||
|
|
||
| ```text | ||
| [subagent:16] text_editor | developer |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
The CLI rendering includes a leading "▸" (and indentation) before the "[subagent:…]" header, so this example should either include that prefix or clarify that it’s showing only the inner header text (e.g., JSON stream mode).
Suggested change
