# Pi subagent result delivery Wayfinder integration

## Question

How should Wayfinder coordinate AFK worker completion, result inspection, failure recovery, and artifact reconciliation while the parent session remains free to continue HITL work such as grill?

## Working decisions

When AFK workers complete during an active HITL ticket, Wayfinder should surface completion awareness but should not read result bodies or reconcile artifacts until the HITL ticket resolves or the human explicitly pauses for reconciliation.
After the HITL flow resolves, Wayfinder should resume its normal workflow-specific coordination responsibilities rather than ask the human to choose a generic subagent protocol.
For workers belonging to the active map, that means reconciling returned artifacts, recording honest failure or recovery state, updating map decisions, and advancing the Frontier according to Wayfinder's existing mechanics.
The generic subagent layer only needs to make the completion and result reliably visible and retrievable enough for Wayfinder to do that work.

## Result

Wayfinder integration follows the boundary established by the product semantics.
The subagent layer exposes current-session completion, result, and label state without deciding what reconciliation means.
Wayfinder owns the active-map workflow: completion during HITL is visible but deferred, and after HITL completion or explicit pause Wayfinder reconciles same-map worker results through its normal artifact and Frontier mechanics.
