The author lists failures when many AI agents run against the same codebase, database, and API budget: shared-state collisions and token-budget runaways, most unrelated to model smarts. Fixes include isolating each agent in its own branch or worktree, setting per-agent and per-run budgets, and assigning ownership of directories and tables up front.
