Anthropic’s Claude Code has a research preview called “dynamic workflows,” according to a post from ClaudeDevs. The company states that Claude can write “an orchestration script on the fly” and then spin up “a large fleet of coordinated subagents” to handle larger tasks. The post adds that including the word “workflow” in a prompt is enough to get started.
ClaudeDevs describes the feature as useful for work that is too large for a single agent loop, including “service-wide bug hunts,” “large migrations,” and stress-testing a design. The company also warns that these workflows can be expensive, since they can “consume a lot of tokens fast,” and recommends starting with a scoped task first. Another post mentions a new /effort ultracode setting that runs at “xhigh” and lets Claude decide when a task warrants a dynamic workflow.
The company also says workflows are reusable. They can be saved as a slash command in a project to share with a team, or stored in a home directory for broader use. ClaudeDevs pointed to a blog post for more on the orchestration and to docs for setup details.
ClaudeDevs says the feature is available today on Max, Team, Enterprise, and via the API, including Bedrock, Vertex AI, and Foundry. It is on by default for Max and Team, while Enterprise admins can opt in through managed settings.
