name: nav-multi description: DEPRECATED. Multi-Claude shell orchestration is superseded by native Claude Code Workflows. Auto-invokes on "run multi-agent workflow", "parallel agents for", "multi-claude for", "spawn agents for" to redirect the user to the native Workflow and Agent tools. allowed-tools: Read version: 2.0.0
nav-multi (DEPRECATED)
Deprecated as of 2026-06 (TASK-25).
Navigator's marker-coordinated, headless claude -p multi-agent scripts are
superseded by Claude Code's native orchestration — more reliable, no external
scripts, and what this project itself now uses for its own audits and planning:
/workflows— Dynamic Workflows: deterministic multi-phase orchestration (plan → implement → test → review), parallel/pipeline fan-out, structured output, in-session resume. No marker files, no context bloat.- The Agent tool / subagents: parallel independent agents with optional git worktree isolation; can run in the background and report back.
When invoked
Tell the user the multi-Claude scripts are deprecated and point them to the
native tools above. Do NOT run navigator-multi-claude*.sh.
Example response:
Multi-Claude shell workflows are deprecated. Use native Claude Code orchestration instead:
/workflowsfor multi-phase work, or the Agent tool for parallel subagents. Both supersede the old marker-file scripts.
History
The scripts (scripts/navigator-multi-claude*.sh, sub-claude-monitor.sh,
resume-workflow.sh, multi-claude-dashboard.sh) remain in the repo for
reference under a DEPRECATED banner but are unmaintained (~30% success rate).
See .agent/tasks/TASK-25-fix-multi-claude-reliability.md for the deprecation
rationale and the research that informed it.
