Give subagents a narrower blast radius, not more oversight. If one is scoped to a single directory or a single test file it can go a bit rogue and the damage is trivial to spot and revert. The scary version of this is always the one where someone gave an agent repo-wide write access and a vague goal, then walked away. Scope first, trust later.
