// Persistent Workspaces for Long-Lived Claude Code Agent Teams //

Four issues to be aware of：

Working state vanishes when a terminal closes and the team cannot be resumed.

Compaction condenses the conversation and blurs each agent's working detail.

Decisions and operations get trapped in compacted chats， which accumulates as agentic technical debt.

Every handoff needs another long prompt.

ATWZ is a filesystem operations layer built around Claude Code's native Agent Teams. Each agent gets a workstation directory holding its working state alongside the skills， hooks and scripts that maintain those files. The team backs up periodically so knowledge survives compaction， and a single command restores the whole team after the process ends.

Agents also send documents to one another inside the workspace， which replaces most of the handoff prompt writing.
