Multi-Agent Coding Experiment: Isolation Fails; Open-Source Médula Coordinates Parallel Claude Code

An experiment with six coding agents on one repo found isolated branches all fail while communicating agents pass. The author open-sourced Médula (MIT), a kernel coordinating parallel Claude Code agents, where 61% of write requests require escalation to a slower decision channel.
