Description
### What happened?
Hey! Whenever `gemini-cli` defers to the generalist agent it hangs forever. Simple changes like folder creation hang. I've let it wait for up to an hour before cancelling it.
Instructing the model not to defer to sub agents resolves this issue. After instructing it to not use sub agents, it quickly performs the task.
There is no hint as to what is causing it to hang. I have tried running it with `--debug`, but I haven't gotten more information about root cause.
