Source Intelligence

DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

Parallel Agent Architecture

When enabled, the Task tool can now:

  1. Spawn multiple agents to work on different aspects of a problem simultaneously
  2. Collect results from all agents
  3. Use a synthesis agent to combine findings into a cohesive response
  4. Display progress for each agent separately in the UI

Example output with parallel agents:

3 total tool uses across 3 agents

Agent 1:
  [tool use progress]

Agent 2:
  [tool use progress]

Synthesis (combining results):
  [synthesis progress]
