Swarm Lanes — Multi-Agent / Multi-PR / Multi-LLM / Multi-Platform

Purpose: coordinate concurrent work streams so independent agents can ship in parallel without merge collisions.

Use this when work is expected to produce multiple branches or pull requests, or when the run spans mixed models/platforms.

Rules

  • Merge-on-close log: close_lane.py replaces prior rows on lane closure (not strictly append-only — S399 audit confirmed close_lane.py deliberately deletes prior rows, L-527). Lanes track DOMEX/frontier work; maintenance/handoff commits have no lane requirement.
  • One lane ID per mergeable objective.
  • Update lane state by appending a newer row for the same lane ID.
  • No parked active lanes: READY/CLAIMED/ACTIVE rows must get next-session progress (progress/blocked/next_step) or be closed/reassigned.
  • Scope-Key must represent the primary write surface (for example tools/maintenance.py or docs/protocol-core).
  • Use Etc for extra axes not covered by fixed columns (runtime=wsl, dataset=..., tool=codex, etc.).
  • For active lanes (CLAIMED/ACTIVE/BLOCKED/READY), Etc must include: setup=<swarm-setup> (host/tool/runtime profile), focus=<scope> (global or a concentrated subsystem), available=<yes|no|partial>, blocked=<none|reason>, next_step=<action>, human_open_item=<none|HQ-N>, expect=<predicted-outcome> (declare before acting), and artifact=<path> (commit to what will be produced). Use python3 tools/open_lane.py to create lanes with these fields enforced automatically (F-META1 enforcement, S331).
  • For assignment events (READY/CLAIMED), include dispatch provenance in Etc (dispatch=<source>), and add slot=<n> and/or reassigned_from=<lane|slot> when applicable.
  • For active lanes with domain focus (focus=domains/<domain> or Scope-Key under domains/<domain>/...), Etc must also include: domain_sync=<queued|syncing|synced|stale|n/a> and memory_target=<domain memory path being synchronized>.
  • When multiple setups are active at once, keep at least one lane with focus=global so cross-setup coordination stays explicit.
