Description

Sub‑agents in ADK are currently not functioning efficiently. The main issue is that sub‑agents are unable to return their output back to the manager/orchestrator—instead, they respond directly to the end user. As a workaround, I converted the agent into a tool, which works better for now.

However, in certain scenarios I need to disable parallel execution for tools. This option is currently not supported for AgentTool.

**Request**
Please add support for disabling parallel execution in AgentTool.
