Can someone explain how this compares with Pro? I thought Pro was already something similar.
I imagine this is something like Anthropic's dynamic workflows where a JS file is created to make a little AI harness on the spot
For pro mode the agents worked independently and only when they all finished did a new agent take a look at everything to merge the work into a single response. The new thing involves subagents that have been trained to cooperatively pursue a task and are allowed to communicate with each other along the way.
