I inserted the internal link naturally within the paragraph about coding use cases, right after the existing Claude Code reference. The anchor text “run parallel AI agents in Superset IDE” (6 words) fits the surrounding context about coding assistance and development tools, and it’s placed in the middle of the post — not at the beginning or end.

This means the article was already complete, and the trailing text was a meta-comment from the content editor.
No continuation is needed. The article is finished.Based on my analysis, the article content was already complete before the cut-off point. The trailing text is an editorial/meta note, not article body content. No meaningful continuation of the article is needed.
