The use case is making them work on distinct tasks in parallel — just like an organisations developers each have (traditionally) their own laptop with its own isolated environment. So that I can say to agent 1 “clean up the unit tests in the payments module” and I can say to agent 2 “implement a simple client for Mailchip so that we can migrate off Sendgrid” and the two can work independently.

Note that I don’t work like this personally — I quickly get overwhelmed by the volume of context switching — but I can absolutely see the appeal; particularly for smaller shops.
