> dibs — polymatx-dibs. Use this tool when you need to coordinate parallel coding efforts and prevent edit collisions among multiple agents. It solves problems of concurrent modifications, agent communication, and knowledge sharing by providing a git-based coordination system with features like file claims, presence tracking, and a searchable knowledge base. It takes in coding tasks and agent interactions as inputs and outputs coordinated workflows, conflict resolutions, and shared knowledge.
