Curious for those of you who run multiple CC’s in parallel as a “swarm”, how do you handle conflicts at merge time? For example, if I swarm 4 agents on 4 different issues and they each create a work-tree, it’s highly likely that multiple agents will end up touching common files (e.g. typescript configs, steering docs, etc…). I’m interested in trying that out but hitting tasks in parallel seems like it would be more prone to issues both in merge conflicts but also just in logic that changed in 1 agent but the others don’t know about yet so they keep coding against old codebase. How do you make it work? Is swarming actually more efficient than tightly scoped sequential runs? submitted by /u/thatguyinline
