What Are Specialist Agents?

Specialist agents are expert AI assistants the main agent hands work to. Each one is shaped for a kind of work rather than a subject area, keeps its own focused context, and reports back with a summary.

The Team

The lineup is fixed. You do not configure it, and you cannot ask for a specialist by name.
  • Researcher: read-only investigation of your project. Answers “where is X wired” or “does Y exist” with file and node anchors
  • General worker: multi-step tasks that need file reads and writes, like scaffolding scripts or research-then-apply edits
  • Builder: scenes and gameplay end to end. Scripts, scene files, main scene, input actions, project settings, and a compile check
  • Asset maker: images, 3D models, audio, rigged characters, and animations. One variant returns assets for review; another also imports and places them in your scene
  • Verifier: traces the real scene, scripts, and editor state to confirm a feature works, and says plainly when it does not
  • Advisor: the second opinion the main agent turns to when it is stuck
There is no 3D specialist and no audio specialist. Ask for realistic forest lighting or a horror sound mix and the main agent takes it on, delegating to the team above as it sees fit.

How the Workflow Works

  1. You describe what you want in your normal chat
  2. The main agent decides whether the work needs a specialist, and which one
  3. The specialist runs and you watch it live in your chat as its own clean thread
  4. It folds a short summary back into the main chat when it finishes
Specialists are not separate conversation threads you switch into, and they do not persist between chats. They run inside the same conversation as tools the main agent calls, which is why you never have to manage them or come back to them later.

Parallel Execution

Because each specialist keeps its own focused context, several can run at the same time. One can build your player controller while another generates enemy art and a third researches how your save system works, without blocking each other or cluttering your main chat.
