const DESCRIPTION: &str = "\
Hand work to something else and read the result back.
Takes one string. If it starts with `!`, the rest runs as a shell command in \
this workspace and you get its output — `!cargo test -q`. Anything else is a \
task handed to a subagent, which works on it and returns a final answer — \
`find every TODO under src/ and summarise them`.
To delegate a task whose own text starts with `!`, double it: `!!important, …`.
Commands are put to the operator before they run, so ask for one command that \
does the job rather than several that each need answering.";
