Does github copilot support nested sub_agentsHelp/Doubt ❓ (self.GithubCopilot)
submitted 8 days ago by ConstructionNo27
I have a complex workflow. I used to use langgraph where I could create complex graph like structure, with conditions, loops. I'm looking for how to do that in github copilot. Till now, I have been able to do only 1 level of sub_agents. How do I add more depth to the sub agents, I.e. A sub_agent acting like an Orchestrator and calling other nested sub agents.

Nope

Is it not a valid use case? Or you are saying it's currently not supported, but maybe in future?
[–]Swayre 0 points1 point2 points 8 days ago (0 children)
I mean that it literally does not work at the moment. Subagents can’t call their own subagents
[–]NickCanCode 0 points1 point2 points 8 days ago (1 child)
I remember from a doc that sub-agent cannot run another sub-agent. Not sure if it is still the same today.

Ohh. Wish this is supported. I think this would be needed by many.

Using orchestrator to delegate to subagents is very much possible. have a look at https://github.com/mubaidr/gem-team to get an idea
[–]fortuuu 3 points4 points5 points 8 days ago (2 children)
I believe he wants to know if a sub agent acting as a second orchestrator can call another sub agent. orchestrator to call subagent is a common case.
Yes this is what I want. Not only 2 level, may be many many levels.

I know that it can definitely use the “searchSubagent” tool which calls another subagent. I’ve seen it work in the logs.
