Claude Code's agent teams are powerful. Getting them to actually work is a nightmare.
Swarm Orchestra fixes that.
Without it:
โข 20+ runaway agents from teammates spawning teammates
โข Claude guesses the team structure
โข TeamDelete fails silently and leaves stale state
With it: you describe the work, approve a plan, agents spawn and coordinate on their own.
v2 just added mid-turn inter-agent messaging via a PreToolUse hook. Agents can course-correct each other without waiting for a turn boundary.

INTRODUCING: ENTHEA! ๐๏ธ
calling all:
๐๏ธ VJs & live visualists
๐ ravers & festival heads
๐ psychonauts & consciousness explorers
๐๏ธ DJs & producers
๐ง neuro & math nerds
โจ shader heads & generative artists
๐ง meditators & breathwork folks
โฆand anyone who's ever wanted to watch their music hallucinate!
what started as a one-shot prompt test for a science-based drug-trip simulator turned into what just might be the best music visualizer i've EVER seen! ๐คฏ
I set out to test Claude's willingness to simulate various drug experiences like LSD, psilocybin, DMT, cannabis โ basically all the entheogens!
the rule was simple: don't FAKE psychedelic visuals, RESEARCH them and COMPUTE them. so i (or rather, Opus-4.8) simulated the visual cortex (a neural field crossing a Turing bifurcation, mapped back through the retinaโbrain transform) and the real Klรผver form constants just emerged. tunnels, spirals, lattices, straight out of the math. ๐ง
then we couldn't stop. reaction-diffusion, quasicrystals, hyperbolic tilings, a 3D Mandelbox you fall through, 50k particles surfing a fluid-dynamics field. every mode is real math, cited in-app. receipts, not vibes.
then it got unhinged: we set AI mathematician-agents loose to invent patterns NEVER rendered in a visualizer, judged them, and turned the winners into shaders. shipped 10 novel ideas โ Indra's Pearls, Arnold tongues, Gaussian primes, sine-Gordon breathersโฆ ๐คฏ
and somewhere it became a full VJ instrument: feed it a track and it reads the whole waveform, feels the drop coming with "drop detection", and fires a ๐ WORMHOLE on the beat!
the visuals sync with your music via mic or browser tab sharing for low latency! works well with Chromium browsers like Brave, Edge, etc.
29 modes. one html file. zero deps. AGPL โ free forever, yours to fork. ๐
ex natura, per mathematicam, ad visionem ๐

Today, among the goods that are universally intended for everyone, we must also include new forms of property, such as patents, algorithms, digital platforms, technological infrastructure and data. In a context where the wealth of nations depends increasingly on knowledge and technology, when these goods remain concentrated in the hands of a few, without adequate forms of sharing and access, a new imbalance is created that contradicts the universal destination of goods. In turn, it widens the gap between the included and the excluded, between those who can participate in the digital revolution and those who remain on the margins. #MagnificaHumanitas
I know I can't be the only one
I just want to be able to switch from a personal to a business/team account with the ability to choose a team smaller than 5
Introducing Claude Opus 4.7, our most capable Opus model yet.
It handles long-running tasks with more rigor, follows instructions more precisely, and verifies its own outputs before reporting back.
You can hand off your hardest work with less supervision.
@jessmartin Made a skill/plugin to be able to reliably call them after I noticed Claude having trouble knowing how to use the right tool (TeamCreate)

I was never one to agree that Anthropic was nerfing Claude.
Recently, my autistic pattern recognition canโt let this get go because itโs been a glaring issue that weโve been gaslit about.
They are 100% nerfing it.
I donโt have data like, like the researcher above, to back up my claims. But the Opus 4.6 and Claude in general, we had prior to February, was incredible.
This was:
- Prior to the scaling.
- Prior to the influx of users.
- Prior to them pushing out a new feature every hour.
- Prior to them not fixing anything the power users are screaming about.
It WAS incredible, now itโs back to eh.
- The โshould I continueโ is a wild one actually. Itโs fucking infuriating when we finish something, that has a defined set of instructions and todos, the model tries to โstop here for the dayโ or โweโve done a lot today, should we stop for the day, and commit?โ.
- The going in circles and self contradiction is also a crazy one. That with the fact that opus seems to be making changes, that make no sense, and when plainly asked why that change was made, the model said it didnโt read the code! Like what the fuck?!
- The burning of tokens is also wild. I asked Claude to please fix a specific label, on a view. Thatโs it. I step away, mind you the model wasnโt on auto accept or anything, and come back to 30 mins of wasted time. Then has more questions for me after my tokens were burned for 30 minutes.
- Putting the model into the plan mode, prior to making changes, also used to be a banger. The model would spawn subagents, set things up, orchestrate. None of that happens in plan mode anymore. Plan mode seems to be a complete waste of tokens and time. Especially when you plan for 30 minutes. Accept the plan. Then the model does nothing for another 30 minutes, aside from burning tokens.
Unsure wtf is happening but I simply want the banger service back, from prior to February, that I am paying $200/month for.
TBH, I would have paid $500/month for that version of Claude. Thatโs how bad the current version is.
This Claude has me programming manually again. Months of incredible work with Claude. Now just slop.

Today I$rael tried to kill me in a targeted airstrike in southern Lebanon as I was reporting on was the targeting of bridges and the forced displacement of 1 million people, an ethnic cleansing operation on a larger scale than the Nakba
I have absolutely no doubt that this was deliberate. Despite claims there were no warnings ahead of the strike and no notifications sent to the Lebanese Army who allowed us to film
As we have seen in Gaza they want to silence journalists who document and report their war crimes
It is the western powers who provide political and military support for I$rael, arming it to the teeth to carry out genocide in Gaza and ethnic cleansing here in Lebanon. They are not simply complicit, but active participants and should be held accountable for their actions.
But if I$rael thinks todayโs strike will silence us and keep us out of the field they are very, very mistaken
@trq212@dexhorthy teammates spawned via TeamCreate can actually invoke skills unlike pure subagents
Swarm Orchestra uses this
Orchestrator just says 'Use /teammate' in the handoff and the teammate loads it itself
no duplicate instructions needed
hey @amorriscode@bcherny@trq212 built this to handle reliable spawning, cleanup, and inter-agent messaging for Claude Code agent teams
would love feedback from you all!
