- Zed now supports multiple parallel agents in the same window with a new Threads Sidebar for control and monitoring.
- The Threads Sidebar allows per-thread agent selection, cross-project work, and isolated worktrees, grouped by project.
- A new default layout docks threads on the left, with project and git panels on the right, optimized for agentic work.
- Parallel agents emphasize agentic engineering: combining human craftsmanship with AI tools for high-quality software.
- Feature available in the latest Zed release, accessible via the bottom-left icon or keybindings.
