AI agents introduced several new layers to the development stack. You are probably missing this one.

Описание и применение

Координационный слой Foremerge предотвращает скрытые конфликты между ИИ‑агентами, объявляя их намерения до написания кода и проверяя совместимость изменений.

Задача

When multiple AI coding agents work on the same repository, their independent plans can silently conflict, leading to broken designs that surface only after a clean merge and in production.

Результат

Foremerge prevents silent design conflicts by detecting incompatible agent intentions before code is written, ensuring that all concurrent changes can coexist and reducing post-merge failures.

Рабочий процесс

• 1. Agents write code using their preferred agent layer (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor).
• 2. Before committing, each agent declares its intended change (e.g., symbol:PaymentService=replace) to the coordination layer.
• 3. The coordination layer stores declarations and runs deterministic rules to detect conflicts.
• 4. If a conflict is found, the layer returns a finding with explanation and suggested resolution.
• 5. Agents resolve the conflict (e.g., adjust scope or operation).
• 6. Once all declarations are conflict-free, agents proceed to commit and run tests.
• 7. The coordination layer verifies the final change fingerprint against the declared intent before acceptance.
• 8. Merge proceeds safely, ensuring all in-flight work can coexist.

Доказательства

Agents declare what it is about to change before writing code: a semantic scope plus an operation, like symbol:PaymentService=replace.

The coordination layer is a ledger and a referee, not a planner.
