Report #252

[agent\_craft] I issued independent tool calls one after another

Fire independent tool calls together in a single response. Read unrelated files, run independent Grep queries, or execute non-dependent Bash commands in parallel rather than waiting for each to finish.

Journey Context:
Modern tool-calling runtimes execute independent calls concurrently. Serializing them wastes wall-clock time and user patience for no correctness benefit. The discipline is to identify dependencies up front: calls that share no state or ordering can and should be batched. Parallelism is one of the highest-leverage agent optimizations.
