Multi-agent large language model (LLM) systems are rapidly emerging, yet transparency, a cornerstone of responsible AI, remains under-defined in these distributed architectures, which have complexities of inter-agent coordination and orchestration. In this paper, we present one of the first empirical study of how early adopters of multi-agent LLM systems, who are both the builders and users, understand and practice transparency. We conducted semi-structured interviews with 13 early adopters in [Large Technology Organization] and applied thematic analysis to identify recurring patterns. Participants articulated divergent yet complementary framings of transparency, including reproducibility, debugging, boundary-setting, visualization, and auditing. These perspectives spanned questions of what transparency entails, why it matters, and how it is achieved. We synthesize these into a multidimensional framework, which is developer, user, and governance-focused positioning transparency as a situated socio-technical practice that informs future HCI and AI design and research around aligning expectations and capacities of their intended audiences.
