What issue are you seeing?

Recently I noticed codex inserts multi-agent V2 subagents at random locations in the subagent list. In the shared thread with 647 subagents, I found one of the recently subagents at 55th place in the list. Searching them by navingating up and down arrows in the tiny subagent 'viewport' (just 8 positions) is impractical.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

What is the expected behavior?

Additional information

Either permit substring or fuzzy search by subagent name via type-in after /subagents command (multi-agent V2 gives subagents semantic names), or separate currently active from currently inactive subagents in the list
