1. Is this request related to a challenge you're experiencing? Tell me about your story.

When I use an agent to invoke tools (which are workflows), and call the agent via an API, the agent invokes the tool (workflow). However, due to the slow response of the workflow, the agent remains in a blocked state. Could future modifications be made to add configurations for the tool? For example, when the agent invokes the workflow tool, the nodes within the workflow could stream responses back to me incrementally, while still allowing the option for blocking responses if needed.

2. Additional context or comments

No response

3. Can you help us with this feature?
