Multiagent: coordinate a specialist team May 2026 • Agent Patterns Tools Heterogeneous team via the multiagent coordinator config — a coordinator runs three specialists (web-search researcher, file-reading librarian, rules-based pricer) with scoped toolsets to assemble a sales proposal. Covers the multiagent field, the thread_created / thread_message_received event types, and per-role tool scoping.

This cookbook demonstrates building a multiagent coordinator system using Claude Managed Agents to automate sales-proposal generation. A coordinator agent orchestrates three specialist subagents—a web-search researcher, a case-study librarian, and a rules-based pricing modeler—each with scoped toolsets and specific responsibilities. The pattern shows how to structure heterogeneous teams, use per-role tool scoping, and leverage thread_created/thread_message_received events for agent coordination to assemble tailored sales proposals.
