Typed namespace method (autocomplete, signature help):

```python
import bittensor as sub

async with sub.Client("finney") as client:
    result = await client.subnets.subnet_identity(netuid=1)
```

Or dispatch by name, as an agent would:

```python
result = await client.read("subnet_identity", netuid=1)
```
