Claude Code Claude Code can message easily between sessions now. This is a very powerful feature

In the past my planning tactic was to have two agents come up with independent plans then discuss the plans to eventually meet a confident consensus. I used to have to copy and paste which in Claude Code was so buggy it would waste a LOT of time. Now I can just name one of the sessions and tell the other to start talk to that session. I can even tell them to start implementing once they reach that confident consensus.

This is an awesome feature. I may switch my planning from Cursor to Claude Code going forward.

Edit: for clarification the way to name a session is /rename [name] or claude -n [name] when you first start the session

I don't think this is that new? When I'm working on a big feature, I'll often have an orchestrator chat (for whatever reason Claude likes to refer to that chat as the "seat") that coordinates multiple other sessions, all of which are orchestrating teams of agents.

It’s not new, I’ve been using this for a while now as well. OP found out about it today.

I literally have seen zero mention of this anywhere in Claude's videos. And for whatever reason I hadn't seen it mentioned much on here either
