Projects Updates in Claude Code

Projects in Claude Code now has a more proactive coordinator that answers your questions and reports on your running threads, for Claude Code users.

  • In a project, Claude coordinates your tasks across parallel threads, and the coordinator now answers your questions directly in the project chat
  • The coordinator gives you updates on the status of your ongoing threads, so you don't have to check each one
  • /btw gives a side question its own thread, so the thread you're working in stays on topic
  • /fork starts a new thread from the one you're in, so you can try a different approach
  • /btw and /fork now work inside projects

Best for

Running several related coding tasks in parallel under one project

When to use it

You have multiple threads going and want a status check without opening each one

Who benefits

Developers who keep several Claude Code tasks moving at the same time
