GPT says it does create a subagent and do the work, but I cannot see any sub agent icon at the Toggle Summary
Why are you guys so keen on removing useful features, making the software harder to use and riddled with more bugs?

What steps can reproduce the bug?

  1. Make a new chat
  2. Ask the LLM create a sub agent

3, Ask the LLM do some thing in the new seb agent

What is the expected behavior?

There should be a sub agent icon at the Toggle Summary and then I can manage the sub agent

Seeing this as well starting today with build Version 26.623.70822 • Released Jun 29, 2026.

When the thread stops, I can see the agents but not while the thread is active.
