Problem Statement

Plan Mode now automatically delegates planning to the plan mode sub agent. Sometimes it is desirable to have the plan created in the main context window so that the coding agent has "maximum awareness". Unfortunately important context is sometimes lost when using the the delegate to sub agent pattern.

Proposed Solution

I would like to be able to set whether plan mode uses a sub agent or does it the old way right in the main context window.

Priority

Medium - Would be very helpful

Use Case Example

I'm working on a complicated, nuanced, but self-contained refactor. I want all available context available for the coding agent, so I prefer to use plan mode in the old non-sub-agent way.

I'm working on a large refactor at risk of filling my context window before the task is finished, so I choose to use sub-agent in plan mode.
