Claude Code relaunches Projects to manage multiple AI agents in the cloud
Anthropic relaunched Claude Code Projects, letting users run multiple parallel Claude Code cloud agents with shared memory, goals, and files.
The revamped Claude Code Projects feature organizes work as "threads," each a Claude Code cloud session working on its own branch and copy of the repo, with a coordinator directing tasks; overlaps on the same code resolve as merge conflicts. Threads can further split work using subagents, loops, and workflows, and users can interact per-thread or via the main project chat. The feature launches today in beta for select Claude Pro and Max subscribers, with later expansion to all Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise users plus Cowork and regular Claude chats. Local tool and code support is promised "very soon."
- Each thread is a Claude Code cloud session on its own branch and repo copy.
- A coordinator agent directs threads; code overlaps resolve as merge conflicts.
- Threads can delegate further via subagents, loops, and workflows.
- Beta available now for select Pro and Max subscribers; broader rollout planned.

The revamped projects feature in Claude Code allows users to run multiple agents under the same roof, with a shared memory, goals, and library of files and artifacts. Similar to Grok Bot and other tools that manage groups of AI agents, each project has “threads” running different tasks in parallel, with a “coordinator” directing everything:
Under the hood, each thread is a Claude Code cloud session working on its own branch and copy of the repo. The coordinator keeps work organized, but if any threads work on the same code, the overlap is resolved as a merge conflict just like any other PR. Each thread can further split its delegated work into pieces using subagents, loops, and workflows when needed so large assignments finish faster.

Users can interact with each thread individually, or monitor and update things through the main project chat. At launch, threads run in the cloud, but Anthropic says support for local tools and code is coming “very soon.” The updated projects feature is available in beta starting today for “select Claude Pro and Max subscribers,” with access expanding to all Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise users later, as well as Cowork and regular Claude chats.
