Claude Code for teams

Short answer: Anthropic's Team plan gives a company shared billing and shared Claude Code setup: standard seats at $25 a month ($20 billed annually) and premium seats at $125 ($100 annually) with 5x the usage. Add a checked-in CLAUDE.md, shared skills and plugins, and everyone's agent follows the same rules. What it doesn't give you is a view of each other's sessions. Coagy adds that on top of each person's own Claude subscription.

What a team gets on top of Claude Code

The useful team features are about consistent setup (Claude Code docs):

• Managed CLAUDE.md. Instructions can live at the organization level as well as per project and per user (memory docs). A project CLAUDE.md is checked into the repo; CLAUDE.local.md and .claude/rules/ cover personal and scoped rules.
• Shared skills and plugins, so the whole team gets the same commands and workflows.
• Hooks and MCP servers set up once for everyone.

If anyone on your team also uses Codex, Cursor or OpenCode, keep shared rules in AGENTS.md and import it from CLAUDE.md. See the AGENTS.md guide.

"Agent teams" is not about your team

The name confuses people. Claude Code agent teams is an experimental feature, off by default, that you turn on with CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS=1. It runs one lead Claude Code session plus several teammate Claude instances that share a task list and message each other. It all happens in one session on one machine. The docs suggest 3 to 5 teammates and warn about higher token cost.

So agent teams is several Claudes working for one person. It doesn't let two humans see or share each other's work. Subagents are similar: they run inside one session and return a result to it.

What a team still can't do

Even with the Team plan and a shared CLAUDE.md, each developer's Claude Code sessions stay on their own computer. In practice that means:

• You can't see what a teammate's agent is doing until they push a branch or paste a screenshot in Slack.
• You can't ask their agent why it changed a file. You interrupt the person instead.
• You can't pick up their session. If they're out, the context is stuck on their laptop.
• Two agents edit the same file and nobody finds out until the merge conflict.

How Coagy adds the missing part

Coagy is a shared workspace for a team's coding agents. Each developer keeps running Claude Code on their own computer with their own Claude subscription, whether that's Pro, Max or a Team seat. A small connector mirrors their sessions into the team's workspace.

• Private by default. The owner chooses which sessions to share.
• Watch a teammate's agent live.
• Ask their agent a question. The owner approves the answer.
• Steer it. Every edit or command from someone else's message asks the owner first.
• Hand off a session to a teammate, with its context.
• Shared project memory that every agent can search.
• One git worktree and branch per task, so parallel agents don't collide.

It also works for teammates on Codex, Gemini CLI or Cursor. The connector runs on macOS, Linux and Windows without admin rights, and Coagy is free for up to 4 developers. People who only watch, comment and chat are free.

Questions

How much is the Claude Team plan?

According to Claude's pricing page, a standard Team seat is $25 per person per month, or $20 billed annually. A premium seat is $125 per month, or $100 billed annually, with 5x the usage of a standard seat.

What are Claude Code agent teams?

An experimental Claude Code feature, off by default, where one lead session coordinates several teammate Claude instances that share a task list. It runs in one session on one machine. It is about multiple AI instances, not a team of people.

Can my team see each other's Claude Code sessions?

Not with Claude Code alone; sessions stay on each developer's computer. Coagy mirrors the sessions each owner chooses to share into a team workspace, where teammates can watch them live, ask questions and take over with a handoff.

Do we need the Team plan to use Coagy?

No. Coagy works with each developer's own Claude subscription, whether Pro, Max or a Team seat, and with Codex, Gemini CLI and Cursor too. Coagy is free for up to 4 developers.

How do we share Claude Code settings across a team?

Check a project CLAUDE.md into the repository, share skills and plugins, and on the Team or Enterprise plan use a managed organization CLAUDE.md. If teammates use other agents, keep shared rules in AGENTS.md and import it from CLAUDE.md.
