Claude Can Parallelize by Prompting

Prompts like the following will create parallel sub agents to do tasks:

Launch X parallel agents to do Y, Each parallel agent should do Z

Example use case: Research

Prompt snippet

Imperfect prompt but illustrates area where spinning multiple parallel agents makes sense:

... Perform re-search on libraries to choose from, choose top candidates THEN create PARALLEL sub-agents to dive deeper into each library creating a markdown file with the research result of that library. After parallization analyze results from each sub-agent and propose the library to use.

Output:

● Now I'll create parallel agents to research each library in detail:
