Agents working at once
The assistant · 1 min read
How many agents on the Agents board, and Team roles, may work at the same time. The rest wait their turn as Queued.
When you would want it
More agents at once finishes a pile of tasks sooner, but spends your key faster and is likelier to run into a provider's rate limit. Three is quick without being greedy.
Where to find it
- All Features → Agents working at once
- Settings
What you get out of it
- Finish a pile of tasks sooner, or keep spending and rate limits gentle - your choice.
- Nothing is dropped when you start too many: it simply waits its turn.
How to use it, step by step
- Open Settings and choose AI.
- Set Agents working at once to a number from 1 to 6. Three is the default.
- Start more tasks than that on the Agents page; the extra ones show Queued and start on their own, oldest first, as others finish.
Why this beats the usual way
Some tools cap parallel agents by plan tier. Agentfly lets you choose, and the limit covers Teams too, so a big Team cannot swamp your provider.
