Claude Code Projects gets a more proactive coordinator

Anthropic updated Projects in Claude Code so the coordinator is more proactive. It answers your questions in the project chat and gives you status updates on your ongoing threads.

In a project, Claude coordinates your tasks across parallel threads. Anthropic's demo shows a project called Storefront with four threads running. Asked "where are we on everything?", the coordinator replies that one is ready and three are still going, with a line on each. It then reports that a flaky test fix passed 50 out of 50 runs and its pull request is ready for review, and asks for one decision before the rate limiting thread writes its tests.

Threads are usually cloud sessions that work on their own branch and can open pull requests. A thread can also run on your own computer through Remote Control. The Overview pane shows finished threads, pull requests ready for review and threads waiting on you.

Projects are in public beta on Pro, Max and Ultra and are rolling out gradually. They aren't on Team or Enterprise yet. A project uses your plan's limits faster than a single session does.
