 Launch 2-4 parallel exploration agents, each focused on a different file group. This is
 critical for efficiency — reading 50+ files sequentially is too slow.
 
+**Model allocation:** Use `subagent_type: "Explore"` with `model: "sonnet"` for all
+exploration agents. Sonnet handles file reading and analysis (best cost/capability ratio).
+The orchestrating model (Opus) plans assignments, synthesizes reports, and infers product
