Approach: Trunk-Based Development for Agent-First Workflows

What problem does it solve?

Trunk-based development for agent-first workflows standardizes how agents and humans collaborate on code by promoting a single, deployable main branch with short-lived feature branches, reducing merge conflicts and coordination overhead.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Single shared main branch is always ready for release
• Short-lived feature branches (<24 hours) for coordinated changes
• Automated validation and rapid revert patterns to maintain stability
• Feature flags to hide incomplete work and enable safe experimentation
• Use cases: Async multi-agent orchestration, rapid iteration in agent-driven projects, and scalable collaboration across teams

Quick Start

Begin by aligning all agents to commit frequently to main and create branches only for changes lasting under 24 hours, ensuring automated tests validate every merge.
