We've considered it! The way we're seeing it, this is something that the CLIs themselves are getting good at natively, such as Claude Code. We generally consider ourselves to be at a higher abstraction / task level, where the individual CLIs are responsible themselves for breaking down and distributing a larger task across subagents.

But that's not provider-agnostic, which you mentioned earlier as one selling point of Emdash. :-)

Not-so-unrealistic use case, IMO: What if I want my orchestrator model to be, for example, ran locally due to some form of privacy concerns?
