I have a custom agent that I call my "G.S.D." (Get Stuff Done) agent.

It is explicitly not a foreman, task routing, or an orchestrator agent. It has a bias toward direct action and is instructed to only delegate when necessary.

I've found that this approach yields significantly faster results, without much of a quality trade-off, than an agent whose primary impulse is to delegate.

In contrast, HydraFusion starts with a task routing step, then sequential planning, execution, and review stages. My guess is that this workflow is best for people who are prioritizing cost over speed for the same level of quality.
