Running 4 Astra Sessions to Build a Message Board and Coordinate 7 Agents

BenjaminGVincen · x · 2026-09-08

A user shared an experiment: he told 4 parallel OpenAI Astra sessions to construct a message board and coordinate their work — "good luck to us all." In follow-ups, when the agents weren't chatty, he asked them to coordinate more closely; the system reported: "setup is complete: all seven agents received tested python3 commands to read inboxes, ping peers, and acknowledge messages. They were instructed to ping one peer and check messages every 60 seconds." Another commenter noted the whole thing amounts to "a whole metric ton of curation."
