Claude Code Expands: Parallel Job Tracking for Developers
Claude Code now on web and mobile, lets devs run parallel jobs with tracking
Anthropic just shoved its Claude Code AI into a browser tab and a phone. It's a direct shot at developers who want to run several coding jobs at once and actually see what's happening.
The pitch is control. Instead of one linear chat, you can now kick off multiple tasks—a bug fix here, a refactor there—in separate, tracked sessions. The idea is to stop losing your place in complex work.
This isn't about more raw power. It's about giving a view into the machine. You can watch progress and tweak the approach while the AI is still working, a shift from the fire-and-forget model of earlier tools.
Each session runs in its own isolated environment with real-time progress tracking, and you can actively steer Claude to adjust course as it’s working through tasks.” This allows users to run coding projects asynchronously, a trend that many enterprises are looking for. The web version of Claude Code, currently in research preview, will be available to Pro and Max users. However, web Claude Code will be subject to the same rate limits as other versions.
Anthropic throttled rate limits to Claude and Claude Code after the unexpected popularity of the coding tool in July, which enabled some users to run Claude Code overnight. Anthropic is now ensuring Claude Code comes closer to matching the availability of rival OpenAI's Codex AI coding platform, powered by a variant of GPT-5, which launches on mobile and the web back in mid September 2025. Parallel usage Anthropic said running Claude Code in the cloud means teams can “now run multiple tasks in parallel across different repositories from a single interface and ship faster with automatic PR creation and clear change summaries.” One of the big draws of coding agents is giving developers the ability to run multiple coding projects, such as bugfixes, at the same time.
That rate limit note is the fine print. The web version is for paying users, and it hits the same usage caps. Anthropic got burned by people running jobs overnight last summer and doesn't want a repeat.
The isolation between sessions matters. It means one messed-up task won't bleed into another, a basic requirement for any team considering this.
Claude Code is now chasing feature parity with OpenAI's offering on web and mobile. The real test is whether this parallel tracking feels like useful oversight or just another dashboard to ignore.
