Agent Teams Workflow
Multi-agent parallel coordination for complex tasksStatus: Experimental (v2.1.32+) | Model: Opus 5 required (Opus 4.6+ compatible) | Flag:
CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS=1
What: Multiple Claude instances work in parallel on a shared codebase, coordinating autonomously without active human intervention. One session acts as team lead to break down tasks and synthesize findings from teammates.
When introduced: v2.1.32 (2026-02-05) as research preview Reading time: ~30 min Prerequisites: Opus 5 model (Opus 4.6+ compatible), understanding of Sub-Agents, familiarity with Task Tool
