Agent Orchestration
A method for multiple AI agents to work together on complex tasks by sharing a common workspace, context, and files—eliminating manual handoffs between separate interactions.
Core Principles
- Shared workspace: Agents collaborate within a single environment instead of isolated chat sessions
- Context preservation: Continuity of task context across agent interactions
- File sharing: Agents access and modify shared documents during collaboration
- Orchestration: Central system (e.g., claude-code) coordinates agent roles and handoffs
- Sub-agents: Specialized assistants within Claude Code that address challenges in context management and tool selection by using task-specific configurations (customized system prompts and tools) 2026 04 14 Mastering Claude Code sub agents
Implementation Example
- Claude Code AI Work Team (Grace Leung, 2026):
Uses claude-code to build orchestrated agent teams where:
- Agents share context and files without user intervention
- Complex tasks (e.g., code generation, analysis) are decomposed across sp
