π§ Dynamic Group Creation
$3
`bash
Interactive group creation
claude-coord create-groups --interactiveQuick group from description
claude-coord create-task --description "Build user authentication system with JWT"Split large work into multiple groups
claude-coord split-work --tasks=3 --description="E-commerce platform with payments"
`$3
User Request: "I want 3 Claude instances: one for authentication, one for payment integration, one for admin dashboard"System Response:
`bash
β
Created 3 work groups:
πΉ AUTH_SYSTEM: Authentication & user management
πΉ PAYMENT_INTEGRATION: Stripe/payment processing
πΉ ADMIN_DASHBOARD: Admin panel & analyticsπ Ready to coordinate - run these in separate terminals:
claude-worker --id=claude_auth --group=AUTH_SYSTEM
claude-worker --id=claude_payment --group=PAYMENT_INTEGRATION
claude-worker --id=claude_admin --group=ADMIN_DASHBOARD
`$3
The system automatically infers file patterns for common features:
`javascript
{
"AUTH_SYSTEM": {
"files": ["src/auth//", "middleware.ts", "/login//", "/register/*/"]
},
"PAYMENT_INTEGRATION": {
"files": ["src/payment//", "/checkout//", "/stripe/*/"],
"dependencies": ["AUTH_SYSTEM"] // Payments need auth first
}
}

π₯ Integrating Active Claude Instances
$3
Scenario: You're currently working with Claude and want to add parallel workers.Step 1: Initialize coordination in your current project
`bash
In your current terminal with Claude
cd your-project
claude-coord init --type=nextjs # Or your project type
`Step 2: Start the coordinator
`bash
New terminal - Terminal 1
claude-coord start
`Step 3: Convert your current Claude to a worker
`bash
In THIS terminal (where Claude is active)
claude-worker --id=claude_main --group=TYPESCRIPT --verboseThis Claude becomes the TYPESCRIPT group worker
It will receive TypeScript-related tasks automatically
`Step 4: Add more Claude instances
`bash
New terminal - Terminal 2
claude-worker --id=claude_eslint --group=ESLINT --verboseNew terminal - Terminal 3
claude-worker --id=claude_ui --group=UI --verbose
`Step 5: Monitor all workers
`bash
New terminal - Terminal 4
claude-monitor
`$3
Current situation: You have Claude Code open and working on a Next.js project.Integration steps:
1. Keep working - don't close your current Claude
2. Run
claude-coord init in your project
3. Open 3 new terminals:
- Terminal 1: claude-coord start (coordinator)
- Terminal 2: claude-worker --id=claude_b --group=ESLINT
- Terminal 3: claude-monitor (dashboard)
4. In your current Claude terminal: claude-worker --id=claude_main --group=TYPESCRIPT
5. Now you have 2 Claude workers coordinating automatically!$3

π€ User Interaction & Coordination Awareness

When users ask about the coordination system, Claude instances can respond intelligently:User: "What are you working on right now?"
Claude Response:
`
π€ Current Status:
Worker ID: claude_main
Group: TYPESCRIPT
Task: Fixing interface definitions in src/components/
Memory: 145MB / 256MB (57%)
Progress: 3/8 TypeScript errors resolved
Locked Files: src/types/user.ts, src/interfaces/api.tsπ Coordination Status:
- claude_eslint (ESLINT): Waiting for TYPESCRIPT completion
- claude_ui (UI): Processing components (2 files locked)
System healthy β
`User: "How many Claude instances are working on this project?"
Claude Response:
`
π₯ Active Workers: 3/6
π§ claude_main (TYPESCRIPT): Working - Memory 57%
βΈοΈ claude_eslint (ESLINT): Waiting - Depends on TYPESCRIPT
π¨ claude_ui (UI): Working - Memory 71%
π System load: Optimal
`$3
Each Claude can report system status on demand:
`bash
In any worker terminal, Claude can respond to:
"Show me the coordination status"
"What's the current system state?"
"How are other Claude instances doing?"
`$3
β
Self-aware: Each Claude knows its role and current task
β
System-aware: Can report on other workers' status
β
Progress-aware: Tracks completion percentage
β
Resource-aware: Memory, locks, dependencies---

π§ Memory Management & Performance
$3
The system includes comprehensive memory monitoring and cleanup to prevent resource exhaustion:`javascript
// Each worker automatically monitors:
{
"maxMemoryMB": 256, // 256MB default per worker
"checkInterval": 30000, // Check every 30 seconds
"warningThreshold": 0.8, // 80% warning threshold
"criticalThreshold": 0.9 // 90% critical threshold
}
`$3
β
Memory Leak Prevention
- Automatic cache size limits (100 items default)
- TTL-based cache expiration (5 min default)
- Periodic garbage collection triggersβ
Resource Cleanup
- Old log file rotation (keep 10 files)
- State history cleanup (keep 50 snapshots)
- Temporary directory cleanup
- File lock auto-release on shutdown
β
Critical State Handling
- Memory warnings at 80% usage
- Emergency cleanup at 90% usage
- Automatic worker restart recommendations
- Graceful degradation under load

`$3
`bash
Set custom memory limits per worker
claude-worker --id=claude_heavy --group=UI --memory=512 # 512MB limit
claude-worker --id=claude_light --group=TYPESCRIPT --memory=128 # 128MB limit
`$3
| Resource | Limit | Auto-Action |
|----------|--------|-------------|
| Memory per worker | 256MB default | Warning β Cleanup β Restart suggestion |
| Cache size | 100 items | LRU eviction + TTL cleanup |
| Log files | 10 files | Auto-rotation |
| State history | 50 snapshots | Auto-pruning |
| Temp files | 1 hour TTL | Auto-cleanup |Result: Your system stays stable even with 10+ parallel Claude workers! π
