Claude Squad Tutorial: Multi-Agent Terminal Session Orchestration

Learn how to use smtg-ai/claude-squad to run and manage multiple coding-agent sessions across isolated workspaces with tmux and git worktrees.

Why This Track Matters

As teams adopt multiple coding agents, orchestration and isolation become critical. Claude Squad provides a unified TUI for parallel agent sessions while keeping each task isolated through git worktrees.

This track focuses on:

• multi-session orchestration in one terminal UI
• tmux + git worktree isolation model
• review/commit/push flows across parallel tasks
• operational controls for background and auto-yes workflows
