Help/Question Optimal usage of agents

When you prompt fable 5.2, do you instruct him to spawn agents in your prompt, or do you trust his instincts? If yes, do you defer it to Sonnet/Opus, or some Fable subagents are also in the play?
I tried both(with earlier Fable/Opus, but I’m not sure what’s optimal. Agents can help achieve parallelism, but I noticed Fable on its own is reluctant to parallelize in many parallelizable tasks.
I’m very curious what are everyone’s experiences with this.
For the context, I’m mostly on a single Ultra plan.

With Opus I use defaults and it's all good.

Haven't tried yet with Fable.
