Can you explain a bit what you mean by this.

The whole point of an SNMP agent (or subagent) is to provide
management information in a structured manner, and the MIB
essentially defines this structure.
   So talking about a subagent that doesn't involve MIBs
is not really meaningful.

If you are talking about implementing a MIB that retrieves the
current data from some underlying subsystem, and reports that
back directly, without any form of intermediate caching - then
this is a reasonably common way of working.
  Most of the existing frameworks can handle such an approach.

Your mention of the 'delayed_instance' man page seems to
imply that you are looking at an asynchronous approach,
which is somewhat less common, but probably still feasible.

But it would be useful to have a bit more detail about exactly
what you are trying to do.

I'd also suggest that you look at some of the existing MIB module
code, rather than relying purely on the man pages and web tutorials.
