Anthropic Launches Claude Code Projects in Beta: Parallel Cloud Sessions That Keep Running After You Close Your Laptop
Anthropic launched Claude Code Projects in beta, letting one conversation spawn parallel cloud sessions on separate branches that continue after logout.
Anthropic redesigned Projects in Claude Code so a single coordinator conversation spawns parallel threads, each a full Claude Code cloud session with its own git branch and repository copy. Threads inherit project instructions (up to 16,000 characters), MEMORY.md project memory, skills, plugins, and repositories, and can further delegate via subagents, loops, and workflows. The beta is limited to select Pro and Max users on web and desktop, with a cap of 200 new threads per day and faster consumption of plan limits since every running thread is a full session.
- One project conversation acts as coordinator, spawning threads for discrete work items.
- Each thread is a full cloud session with its own git branch and repository copy.
- Threads inherit project instructions, MEMORY.md memory, skills, and plugins automatically.
- Idle threads resume and spend usage when CI fails or review comments arrive.
- Daily cap of 200 new threads; beta limited to select Pro and Max users.

Anthropic redesigned Projects in Claude Code. The old project was a folder: some files plus one chat. The new one is a single ongoing conversation where Claude acts as coordinator.
