Description
### Describe the feature or problem you'd like to solve
Orchestrating agents receive completion noise from their entire descendant tree, not just direct children
### Proposed solution
Completions should propagate one level: each agent receives signals only from its direct children. An orchestrator launching 8 sub-agents gets 8 completion signals regardless of how much nested work each spawns — keeping it focused on its own layer and reducing context noise from work it didn't directly delegate.
### Example prompts or workflows
1. An orchestrator runs 8 sub-agents, each using explore agents internally — it receives ~40–50 notifications today when 8 is all it needs.
2. A sub-agent runs shell commands; each completion fires a notification to the orchestrator even though it has no use for them.
3. Orchestrator → coordinators → workers: the orchestrator should hear from coordinators only, not from workers two levels down.
