Recorded at Imbue HQ on April 2nd, 2026, Josh Albrecht (CTO, Imbue) and Harrison Chase (CEO, LangChain) discuss how to run a fleet of AI coding agents reliably, safely, and cheaply.

Plus, see a demo of Imbue’s newest tool: mngr. A CLI for creating and managing agents locally or in the cloud.

With coding agents, what once took months and twenty engineers to build can now be built in a weekend by one. But getting multiple AI coding agents running in parallel—and keeping them running well—is still trickier than it should be.

You’ll come away with:

  • A concrete mental model for running parallel agents on real projects
  • Insights from two founders building foundational agent infrastructure
  • An understanding of mngr and how to run 1,000 agents at once

Get mngr

It’s free, open source, and available today:

sh

Or get the code on GitHub.
