Fewer, bigger steps. The prompt said nothing about working
efficiently, and the logs showed it: 91% of steps made a single tool
call, bash was used for nearly everything, and small probes went one
per round trip. The system prompt (and the sub-agent's) now asks it to
plan, batch independent reads and searches into one step, chain shell
commands, use read_file/grep/glob to look at code, and stop exploring
once it can act.
No more sleeping to wait. The model had written about two hours of sleep into its commands. It's now told to run long jobs with background and use bash_output with wait, which returns as soon as
there is output or the job ends.
Remote background processes don't hang the call. Starting one with ssh host "cmd &" kept ssh open until the timeout killed it (31 times in
the logs). The prompt and the bash tool now say to detach it: nohup cmd > log 2>&1 < /dev/null &.
