[FEATURE] Allow Sub-Agents to write to directory in manual approval mode.

Problem Statement
My typical use pattern is to use CC in manual approval mode. I want to see what is being written real-time so I can cancel an action that I know is not correct or what I was intending. When using CC in this manner it prevents sub-agents, deployed by the main agent from writing to the system; as a default this makes sense, by being in manual mode I am saying I want to approve 'xyz'. The issue/feature is two-fold, CC does not reliably recognize that the agents being backgrounded cannot write to the system (even with this in the first line of the memory file) - and second, since sub-agents cannot write it slows down the process considerably.
Proposed Solution
What I would like to see is for me to be able to maintain control (read: approval) while allowing sub-agents to write to the system. When a sub-agent is ready to write it would surface the change for approval just like the main agent does.
I know I am vastly oversimplifying the concept and technical pieces of this - but it would be great if this could be a consideration for a future release.
