… I tried to make a colleague of mine test the feature, and he, by accident, started a large bug hunt with Sonnet. It spawned 250 sub-agents and spent 5 hours looking through everything. It actually did find a couple of useful bugs, but not the one we were looking for, which is a stupid race condition probably.
