Agent Jobs: your main Claude Code session talks, decides and checks; everything longer than a few steps runs as a background claude -p job – own worktree, hard limits, guarded, one-line result. Cheaper context, free session.

Agent Jobs lets a long-lived Claude Code session hand heavy work to background claude -p processes. The main session talks, decides and checks; everything longer than a few steps becomes a job: a one-shot, full top-level Claude run with its own git worktree, hard turn / budget / time limits and a guard on every tool call. A small daemon queues, launches, watches and cleans up jobs. When a job finishes, the session receives exactly one line, and reads the report only when it is ready to.
