Claude Squad is an open-source terminal application that multiplexes Anthropic’s Claude: it spawns several Claude Code instances working concurrently in separate tmux panes, so a developer can hand each one a different task. The future of agentic coding: conductors to orchestrators, which describes it as popular, groups it with Conductor as an example of tooling built for running a set of coding agents in parallel rather than one at a time.
Capabilities
The mechanism is terminal multiplexing rather than a hosted service: the instances run locally, each in its own tmux pane, and the developer assigns work to each separately. The stated payoff is parallelism — the post’s phrasing is that this lets a developer code “10x faster” by parallelizing, which is that post’s characterization rather than a measured figure.
