alt Hacker News>I have zero interest in these new "swarms of agents"
I think you misunderstand "swarms of agents", based on what you say above. An agent swarm, in my understanding and checked via a google search, does not imply working on multiple features at one time.
It is working on one feature with multiple agents taking different roles on that task. Like maybe a python expert, a code simplifier, a UI/UX expert, a QA tester, and a devils advocate working together to implement a feature.

How can multiple parallel agents some local and some in the cloud be working on a single task?
How can:
> All local and cloud agents appear in the sidebar, including the ones you kick off from mobile, web, desktop, Slack, GitHub, and Linear. (From the announcement, under “Run many agents in parallel”)
…be working on the same task?
Subagents are different, but the OP is not confused about what cursor is pushing, and it is not what you describe.
They’re not experts.
