If you're an engineering manager, you should communicate with your team, know their strengths and weaknesses, stay sharp on modern technique, and, most importantly, ask them what workflows work best for them, not us on Hacker News.
If you're hiring a consultancy or a pile of freelancers it's a bit different, but the question here would make me believe you don't trust their capability to start and I would be looking for teams that better align with what you expect as their outputs.
I am reaching out to the community to understand the impact this type of tooling is having on engineering teams.
Specifically then, has anyone experienced a step change from these types of multi-agent tools, above the base experience of using Claude Code. Or is this something that just looks the part?
Reading through the code it gives the impression it's teasing out more power from the LLMs. The structure looks like an advanced use of Claude Code with correct feeling abstractions.
Why are you being so combative?
I dont understand how you can say that its a bad thing to ask an IT professional community like HN for advice?
I assume you were born with all the knowledge of the world?
Probably the "should I force X on my team" instead of managing them like professionals with insight (or even just treating them like adults).
Managers deciding minutiae like this is the type of micromanagement you make blog posts about, imo.
You would have likely received less combative feedback without your first sentence. I would have framed it as "recommend to team"
