A named subagent starts cold, a fork inherits your whole conversation and shares your prompt cache, and a background agent is a second Claude Code session entirely. The trap is the naming: /fork stopped being the in-session fork at v2.1.212 and /subtask took over.

Use declarative YAML when the graph is a sequential routing decision that non-developers change often. Use code-first WorkflowBuilder the moment you need parallelism, custom executors, or a non-Foundry agent. Here is the decision, the action catalog limits, and the code both ways.

await Task.WhenAll rethrows only one of the failures. Keep the WhenAll task in a variable and read its Exception.InnerExceptions to see every error instead of one.

CS1998 means an async method has no await, so it runs synchronously. Drop the async modifier and return Task.FromResult, or add the await you forgot.

500.30 means your app threw during startup inside w3wp.exe. The real exception is already in the Windows Application event log under IIS AspNetCore Module V2. Read that first, then rank the fix: missing shared framework, x86/x64 app pool mismatch, missing config, or app pool permissions.

The .NET blog shipped a live microphone transcription sample on August 4, 2026 using Foundry Local and nemotron-speech-streaming-en-0.6b. Here is the session API, the PCM backpressure trap, and which NuGet package to pick.

Manual gates every tool call on you. Auto mode gates them on a classifier with 32 built-in block rules. The mode that surprises people is neither: acceptEdits auto-approves rm, mv, and sed, not just file edits. Measured on Claude Code 2.1.123.

Wrap the subtree in Material(type: MaterialType.transparency) or put the screen in a Scaffold. MaterialApp alone does not provide a Material ancestor, which is why TextField and InkWell assert.

Attach a ScrollController to a ListView.builder, fire the next page when position.extentAfter drops below a prefetch threshold, and guard the fetch with isLoading, hasMore, and error flags. Full implementation plus the short-first-page trap.

Flutter 3.44.8 stable still ships no public multi-window API. Here is how to turn on the experimental windowing feature flag on the main channel, use RegularWindowController and WindowManager to open real top-level windows, and what to ship instead if you need stable today.
