SummaryAnthropic engineers describe lessons from building Claude's Research feature, a multi-agent system where a lead agent plans research and spawns parallel agents that search the web, Google Workspace, and connected integrations. The post covers system architecture, tool design, prompt engineering, and challenges in agent coordination, evaluation, and reliability.
Why it mattersA primary-source teardown of how a frontier lab structures multi-agent systems in production, with transferable lessons on architecture, tool design, and coordination.
