Agent Questions

Question

I'm considering implementing multiple agents to break

• Is it possible for agents to run in parallel? (e.g. a research agent that runs in the background)
• Is it possible for an agent to have more than one model defined, that way if one provider becomes unavailable it doesn't stop working?

Thanks!

This issue might be a duplicate of existing issues. Please check:

• [feat] True Async/Background Sub-Agent Delegation #5887: [feat] True Async/Background Sub-Agent Delegation - Directly addresses parallel agent execution
• Feature Request: Agent Session Tab Bar Navigation #5826: Feature Request: Agent Session Tab Bar Navigation - Related to managing concurrent agent sessions

For the second question about agent model fallback/redundancy when a provider becomes unavailable, I didn't find an exact duplicate, but you may want to check #7099 which discusses agent-specific model configuration.

Feel free to ignore if these don't address your specific use case.
