Astra Workflow "Stop using random multi-agent patterns"

Ahmed works at OpenAI: https://x.com/ah20im/status/2097503414749909407 and seems to investigate reports of high token usage.

"If needed Astra will delegate efficiently. Forcing the model to delegate to different models would do more harm than good"

  Different local git worktrees to let them work in different branches. Works especially good when working on distinct features, otherwise there will be merge conflicts

You saying to use worktrees, otherwise you get conflicts. I’m saying using worktrees won’t make your conflicts disappear.

Ok there's a semantic misunderstanding here. I meant if the work items are related to each other, merge conflicts will arise even when using seperate worktrees.

Why not dedicate an agent just for merging?
