Run independent tool calls in parallel

When your agent needs to do several things that don't depend on each other — reading two files, checking git status while listing a directory — batch them into a single turn instead of going one at a time.

# Slower: sequential
read A → wait → read B → wait

# Faster: parallel in one turn
read A + read B

Tip

Only parallelize when the calls are truly independent. If call B needs the result of call A, keep them sequential.
