"Call n8n workflow tool" should allow me to not wait for it to complete

The Execute Sub-workflow node has the following node options.

“This node includes one option: Wait for Sub-Workflow Completion. This lets you control whether the main workflow should wait for the sub-workflow’s completion before moving on to the next step (turned on) or whether the main workflow should continue without waiting (turned off).”

When using the n8n workflow tool, I wish I didn’t have to wait for the workflow to end, since I don’t require the output and the waiting slows down my agent a lot.

It would be super nice to add a mode where the tool returns nothing and continues to run as it would before.

You could try using an HTTP Request tool and calling the sub-workflow with a webhook trigger

Agreed it should provide this option, I used two workflows to enable this, one which is just a stub workflow which uses the Execute Sub-workflow with Wait For Sub-Workflow Completion disabled on the real workflow.
