Opus 5 shines in async long-horizon work, with four agent patterns for real systems
RLanceMartin · x · 2026-07-25
- RLance Martin says Opus 5 works especially well for asynchronous, long-horizon work.
- He points to a talk from @aiDotEngineer covering practical patterns for agentic systems:
- split the brain and the hands
- self-correction loops
- memory with dreaming
- organization-level agent harnesses
- The post is more about how to structure real agent workflows than about the model’s raw capability alone.
