Claude Multiagent Orchestration: Lead Agent Delegates to Specialists With Own Models, Prompts, and Tools — Shared Filesystem, Persistent Events

Anthropic·high signal

Public beta since May 6. A lead agent breaks work into pieces and delegates each to a specialist with its own model, prompt, and tools. Specialists work in parallel on a shared filesystem. Events are persistent — the lead can check back mid-workflow and every agent remembers what it's done. Netflix already deployed it for their platform team.
