It's getting a lot easier to do this using sub-agents with tools in Claude. I have a fleet of Mastra agents (TypeScript). I use those agents inside my project as CLI tools to do repetitive tasks that gobble tokens such as scanning code, web search, library search, and even SourceGraph traversal.
Overall, it's allowed me to maintain more consistent workflows as I'm less dependent on Opus. Now that Mastra has introduced the concept of Workspaces, which allow for more agentic development, this approach has become even more powerful.
