Story

The paper puts a coordinator agent on top that decomposes unbounded research tasks and dispatches subtasks to workers, attacking the core mismatch that context windows stay finite while real task context grows without bound. This is the exact pattern that makes Claude Code's new fan-out useful. If you're building a research pipeline, delegate subtasks to fresh contexts instead of stuffing one window until it rots.
