How 90 Claude Opus 5.5 agents found a 27-year-old compound in 3 days to solve computing's heat problem

Over three days, 90 Opus 5.5 software agents screened simulations to find two room-temperature magnetic semiconductor candidates: YBaMnFeO₅ and KV[Cr(CN)₆].

Chemists synthesized KV[Cr(CN)₆] back in 1999. Its ability to filter electrons by spin while canceling external magnetism sat unnoticed for 27 years. Because its synthesis recipe already exists, researchers can immediately test it to build denser memory chips without magnetic cross-talk.
