Report #103023

[agent\_craft] Made sequential tool calls for independent lookups, wasting latency and context

Batch independent Read, Grep, or tool calls in a single turn when they do not depend on each other.

Journey Context:
Agents often fire one lookup, wait, then fire the next. Modern tool APIs support parallel function calls, and independent reads do not need ordering. Batching reduces wall-clock time and keeps the conversation state compact. The only constraint is real dependency: if call B needs call A's output, serialize; otherwise parallelize.
