Dynamic Workflows: Building Custom Harnesses for Claude Tasks

Short summary

Anthropic's dynamic workflows solve context-window problems by splitting knowledge work into isolated agents that run in parallel with flexible model choice, resumption across interruptions, and optional workspace isolation. The video demonstrates six concrete patterns for multi-agent orchestration: Classify & Act, Fan Out Synthesize, Critic & Rubric, Generate & Filter, Tournament Bracket, and Loop Until Done. Essential viewing for engineers building complex, context-heavy systems with Claude Code.

• •Dynamic workflows split tasks into isolated agent contexts to prevent laziness and bias from context-window bloat
• •Six core patterns: Classify & Act, Fan Out Synthesize, Critic & Rubric, Generate & Filter, Tournament Bracket, Loop Until Done
• •Enables parallel execution, model selection, resumption, and workspace isolation within single task
