Story

Per the release notes, agents launched from claude agents complete the git loop themselves in a worktree instead of stopping to ask. This closes the last manual step in fire-and-forget dispatch. You send off parallel agents and review finished PRs instead of babysitting completion prompts. It's a small change that meaningfully shifts how many agents one person can run at once.
