Enforce one-task-one-branch-one-worktree-one-agent — and stop scaling past 5–7 agents
The binding rule for parallel coding agents is 'one task → one branch → one worktree → one agent'; deviating reintroduces race conditions. Measured limits matter: ~5 GB disk per worktree on a 2 GB codebase (six agents burned 9.82 GB in a 20-minute session), and throughput degrades past 5–7 concurrent agents due to API rate limits and the human cost of reviewing six simultaneous PRs. Gate each task with three tests — file exclusivity, interface stability, single-sentence bounded scope — and serialize anything that fails.
