Allie Miller says multiplayer AI is underrated, citing Cat Wu’s claim that 65% of Anthropic’s product engineering PRs are closed through Claude Tag inside Slack rather than via single-user Claude Code.
The post describes a team-oriented agent pattern:
- lives in shared collaboration spaces like Slack
- can be added to specific threads and prompted by anyone
- can act as a watchdog triggered by events
- keeps thread-specific memory
- works best on tasks that are not the most complex
The takeaway is that teams are increasingly using AI agents in shared spaces, not just on individual desktops.
