Multi-Agent Workflows

Running multiple agents in parallel works well in Verne, provided each agent has its own working surface.

Isolate each agent

Open multiple workspaces, or create git worktrees within a single repo. A worktree checks out a separate branch into its own directory, so two agents can write files and run commands without touching each other’s work. Each worktree appears as its own workspace in Verne.

Two agents on the same working tree will overwrite each other. On separate worktrees they work independently and can be diffed once both finish.

Watch the Agents panel

The Agents panel lists every agent across all your open workspaces. Watch the status icons:

Icon State What to do
Working Leave it alone for now.
Blocked The agent is waiting and needs you.
Done The run finished and is flagged for acknowledgement.

Scope the panel to a single workspace when you want to focus, or keep it on all workspaces to see the full picture.

Keeping agents focused

Give each agent a clear prompt tied to its worktree’s purpose. If you’re using Claude Code’s @path mentions, inject file paths from the editor to steer it without switching contexts.
