## What it is
Agent Flow is a real-time visualization tool for Claude Code and Codex agent orchestration, available as a VS Code extension and a standalone web app. It renders agent execution as an interactive node graph, streaming tool calls, branching, and subagent coordination as they happen.

## Use cases
- debug agent tool call chains in Claude Code
- visualize how AI agents branch and coordinate in real time
- find slow or redundant tool calls in agent sessions
- watch multiple concurrent agent sessions side by side
- replay agent activity from JSONL event logs
- learn how prompts are interpreted by watching agent execution

## When to choose
- you use Claude Code or Codex and want visibility into agent behavior
- you need to debug why an agent made certain tool calls
- you want a live node graph of multi-agent orchestration inside VS Code or a browser
- you want to track token usage and timing across agent sessions

## When to avoid
- you don't use Claude Code or Codex as your agent runtime
- you need a general-purpose LLM observability platform for production apps
- you only need final agent results without execution traces
- you work in an environment without Node.js or VS Code
