The project involved a robot arm, conveyor belt, pumps, microcontroller, and relays. Using Claude Code to run multiple agents simultaneously compressed what would normally be a multi-month build into a much shorter timeline. The robot arm handled coffee-making tasks with mostly successful results, with only a few crashes, and attracted customers as a novelty. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
