xAI released Grok 4.20 Multi-Agent Beta with four specialized sub-agents — Grok (coordinator), Harper (real-time X research), Benjamin (logic/coding), Lucas (creative/contrarian) — running in parallel on every query. Cross-agent verification drops hallucination from ~12% to ~4.2%. The 2M token context window exceeds GPT-5.4 (128K) and Claude Opus 4.6 (200K). A "Heavy" mode scales to 16 agents. The multi-agent-as-product architecture is worth watching.
