Features

  • The main Claude instance becomes an orchestrator. It splits the task and delegates the work.
  • Each subtask runs on a model tier that fits it: haiku, sonnet or opus.
  • The plugin sets the subagent model from the plan. The orchestrator cannot override it.
  • A live pane shows the task tree. It shows the status, model, time, tool calls and tokens of each subagent.
  • A subagent that another subagent starts shows below its parent.

Requirements

  • Claude Code with plugin support. The author tested version 2.1.306.
  • A Claude Code setup that can use the haiku, sonnet and opus models.
