Google’s coding agents now /swarm for one developer. Cursor’s go multiplayer so teammates’ agents can talk.

Google has introduced a multi-agent system called Swarm, which allows developers to coordinate multiple coding agents working on a single project. This new feature aims to prevent agents from duplicating work or interfering with each other's changes. Swarm enables a developer to delegate an assignment to a coordinator, which then splits the task among worker agents and assigns a verifier to check their changes.

The workers can communicate with each other on a shared board to coordinate their modifications as they progress. The system is designed to streamline complex tasks, as demonstrated by Google staff using Swarm to develop large systems and products from scratch with just a single prompt.
