SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill enables the execution of multiple AI agents concurrently in separate terminal windows, significantly boosting development capacity and allowing for true parallel processing of tasks.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • True Concurrency: Run multiple AI agents (e.g., Claude Code, Gemini CLI, GPT-4 CLI) simultaneously in isolated terminal sessions.
  • Context Handoff: Automatically passes relevant project specifications, conversation history, and file context to each forked agent.
  • Use Case: Develop a full-stack application by having one agent handle the backend API, another design the UI components, and a third write integration tests, all at the same time.

Quick Start

Fork three terminals to concurrently implement backend API, design UI components, and write integration tests.

FAQPage Schema
How do I run multiple AI agents concurrently in separate terminal windows?▼

You can run multiple AI agents concurrently by forking separate terminal windows, which provides true parallel processing and task isolation for development workflows. This allows simultaneous execution of different agents.

What is the best way to split full-stack development tasks across parallel AI agents?▼

The best way to split full-stack tasks is to spawn parallel agents with context handoff, assigning one to the backend API, another to UI components, and a third to integration tests. This maximizes development capacity through simultaneous execution.

Does context handoff work when forking Claude Code or Gemini CLI agents?▼

Yes, context handoff works by automatically passing relevant project specifications, conversation history, and file contents to each forked agent. This ensures isolated terminal sessions maintain the necessary background information.

Can I use Git worktrees for task isolation when spawning multiple AI agents?▼

Yes, you can integrate Git worktrees with forked AI agents to achieve complete task isolation. This ensures concurrent development sessions do not interfere with each other's file changes.

How do I monitor progress of concurrent AI agents running in different terminals?▼

You monitor progress of concurrent AI agents via logs generated in each isolated terminal session. This allows you to track individual agent execution without disrupting the parallel processing workflow.
