A coding-agent user wants `/goal` to batch tasks and compact between them

A user asks for a /goal mode that can batch tasks and compact between them
The post argues that current /goal behavior spends too much time in the “dumb zone” and would work better if it could:
- accept multiple tasks at once,
- compact between tasks,
- and keep going until every task is done.
It’s a practical workflow request for coding agents, not a model-quality complaint.
