Delegate research and context-gathering tasks to a sub-agent to protect the primary context window. Use when the user asks to "research X", "look into X", "find out about X", "gather context on X", or any investigative framing where answering requires 2+ searches or multiple sources. Also use proactively before starting substantive work when prior context is unknown. Never run research inline — always delegate.
