# Running several agents at once

> A pad runs multiple workspaces, and an agent does not need your attention to make progress. Put those together and parallel agents stop being a stunt.

Part of the reachpad docs: https://reachpad.dev/docs. Rendered page: https://reachpad.dev/docs/multiple-agents.

## One agent per workspace

Open a workspace per agent: Claude Code planning in one tab, Codex implementing in another, a third on a different repo entirely. Each session is independent: its own shell, its own auth, its own run.

## Your attention is the scarce part

The tab strip shows which sessions are working and which are stopped waiting for you, so running three agents is not three times the watching. It is answering whichever tab is blocked. The mechanics are in [knowing when an agent needs you](https://reachpad.dev/docs/agent-status).

## Agents we should add

Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode and Kimi are preinstalled today. Want another one on the pad? Write to [hello@reachpad.dev](mailto:hello@reachpad.dev).
