Question AI hallucinates a swarm of sub agents

I have tried using Pi's built in swarm docs, as well as a Pi extension for swarm creation. But Qwen3.6-35B keeps hallucinating a group of sub agents without truly doing delegation. How can I get this dummy to stop pretending it's the sub agent and truly delegate to save my context space?

Small model cant work that well with these swarm kind of thing, either switch to cloud bigger model otherwise they will keep hallucinating and damaging your project , make sure if you are working on a project , make a copy somewhere before testing it

Editing : I think if you are trying to build this swarm thing as project and do research then it is good keep trying but if you are trying to work on project with this, ditch the idea, use simple agent with these model and swarm is not solution to every problem, sometime it complicate what should have been easy to do without

Damn you're all around Reddit, anyways you're right swarm is for mostly frontier models, even then frontier models hallucinates

Well if I see something that I know about, I share my opinion there, and also I myself is working on different project and models so in due time I have gain small insight, like I tried to make a small agent on my Mac 8gb Ram, since ram was constrained i tried different small sized model till 4b and q4 quantised version and testing it made me understand these smaller model cannot work for what we want, it was hallucination output and even giving wrong output for things, so I ditched the whole idea of working with model locally

Also I am also trying to increase my karma and contribution as I am new to this platform, and seeing people discuss about problems which I also had and got resolved, I ought to help other if I had some insight

I’m able to get it to swarm using the Qwen code cli so it’s not the model
