Ethan Mollick: new Claude Projects shines as a coordinator-plus-agents interface for multi-agent work
emollick · x · 2026-10-20
Ethan Mollick says the new Claude Projects is a nice interface for multi-agent work: a user-facing coordinator model plus independent agent threads that pass messages to each other. Screenshots show him building an annotated Waste Land site — agents rewrote 142 stops, committed code, and deployed after his sign-off, asking for human approval only at key gates. "Takes some fiddling but quite powerful," he notes, joking it shares a name with but has no relation to the old Projects.
