I've made a few attempts at manually doing this w/ mcp and took a brief look at "claude swarm" https://github.com/parruda/claude-swarm - but in the short time I spent on it I wasn't having much success - admittedly I probably went a little too far into the "build an entire org chart of agents" territory the main problem I have is that the agents just aren't used For example, I set up a code reviewer agent today and then asked claude to review code, and it went off and did it by itself without using the agent in one of anthropic's own examples they are specifically telling claude which agents to use which is exactly what I don't want to have to do: > First use the code-analyzer sub agent to find performance issues, then use the optimizer sub agent to fix them My working theory is that while Claude has been extensively trained on tool use a

nd is often eager to use whatever tools are available, agents are just different enough that they don't quite fit - maybe asking another agent to do something "feels" very close to asking the user to do something, which is counter to their training but maybe I just haven't spent enough time trying it out and tweaking the descriptions
In Claude Code introduces specialized sub-agents
I love how I am learning about a new claude code feature in a comment on HN - nowhere to be found on their release notes https://docs.anthropic.com/en/release-notes/claude-code Thanks for the tip!

[EDIT 2]: so far this seems to suffer from the same problem I had in my own attempts which is that I need to specifically tell it to use an agent when I would really like it to
Read the rest
just figure that out on its own like if I created an agent called "code-reviewer" and then I say - "review this code" ... use the agent!
