I sat down with Alex Albert to talk about how the Claude Code team builds features, emerging behaviors like "multi-Clauding," and what's next for the Claude Code SDK for building agents!

Watch on youtube:

I'm constantly surprised by how much I can get out of Claude Code. Recently installed the github command line tool gh, and I'm now getting it to manage PRs too, pull comments, fix things, etc. I used to do the PR work on the web and have been getting comfortable having Claude do this now. I wonder if the barriers to use this is just that I need to get comfortable with giving more Claude more tools and access.

Cat, I really enjoyed the pod — thanks! I actually built a general-purpose sales agent using the Claude Code SDK and can attest to how easy it is to prototype - kudos to you and your team! I envision new agents as just: - a system prompt describing key workflows - tools - memory management Wdyt?

Hi Cat, thanks for sharing your insights about Claude Code it's really helped me build. With regards to "multi-clauding" have you thought about features to make multiple Claudes in the same workspace aware of each other for context? Seems like the community is creating a lot of hacks and workarounds to solve multiple agent coordination.

@alexalbert__ do anticipate joining this standard anytime soon? @_catwu

@alexalbert__ Love it! Thank you!

@alexalbert__ I've never had good success with multiple claude agents in the same codebase ! they try to run the same command like start up the app, kill processes from the other guy to do their own thing, etc

@alexalbert__ Listened to that yesterday while biking home - nice one! Next time spill on more upcoming features please and thanks cat! 😃

@alexalbert__ "Har Ghar Claude Code Yojna" wen?

@alexalbert__ @_catwu am still hoping that you guys would open source claude sometime because it's very crucial for some of us to understand what is underneath before diving straight into using it for more high level tasks.

@alexalbert__ great sharing!

@alexalbert__ Thanks for the insights! Is Claude Code ever going to have a tab completion feature in the editor? It would make the occasional manual edits a lot easier by leveraging the context gathered by the agent.

@alexalbert__ This was great! Thanks guys!

@alexalbert__ Love to see it

@alexalbert__ Hey, awesome to see the focus on SDKs. I was prototyping on top of claude code and ended up building an SDK for swift. Would love some support to align w the vision you have for the SDKs.

@alexalbert__ 🌟 The future of software development is here, and it's autonomous. 🌟

@alexalbert__ Multi clauding overdue

@alexalbert__ Interesting. Building features around emerging behaviors sounds like a dynamic development process. What drives "multi-Clauding"?

@alexalbert__ Can't wait to try the SDK! What use cases have you found most interesting aside from coding?

@alexalbert__ Props for the restraint in not having a slightly shaky Open AI style camera recording you two

@alexalbert__ Yes, reaching there soon - Multi-Clauding

Great chat. You can feel that Claue code is used by people who built it. One question, what project management tool do you use to manage this type of parallel work. like multiple devs each has their multiple Claude code working on things, how to coordinate is the key here I think.

@alexalbert__ I routinely have 3 claudes running!

@alexalbert__ Could you share insights on the move to Cursor and back to Anthropic

@alexalbert__ through the process of antfooding 😅

@alexalbert__ This video was inspiring. Claude Code SDK seems applicable not only for a Software Engineering Agent but also for a business agent. I'd like to learn more about examples and ideas for using Claude Code SDK in business operations.

@alexalbert__ This is great. Multi-agent collaboration is definitely the future. Looking forward to the SDK updates.
