MAST

**MAST — Method for Agents, Sessions and Tasks.** A way to run a project with several Claude Code agents so they don't get in each other's way, and what they build doesn't drift apart.

The goal is development that runs as autonomously as possible. Several tasks move in parallel while you work from **a single terminal**: you talk to one dispatcher session, and it hands work out to agents, collects the results, talks to other sessions, turns to a stronger model for advice, and comes to you only when a decision is yours to make.

Where it came from

It started with the problems of ultracode mode: it launches dozens of agents at once, and there's no keeping track of who's doing what or what's already done. The goal was the same reach, but under control. The pieces turned up in other projects:

• beads — tasks live in a tracker agents understand: what's free, what's taken, what's waiting on what. But it's a separate database (Dolt) with its own CLI, in embedded mode only one process writes to it, and tasks move out of the text next to the code — for a small project that's more machinery than benefit;
• Agent Teams — a dispatcher role, and agents that message each other, not just the human. But it'
