Report #2769

[agent\_craft] Ran dependent lookups sequentially and burned turns, or parallelized writes and created races

Batch independent Read/Grep/Glob calls in a single response; keep edits on the same file strictly sequential.

Journey Context:
LLM tool interfaces often allow multiple calls per turn. Independent reads share no state, so parallelizing them cuts latency without risk. Sequential writes on the same file, however, produce undefined intermediate states if parallelized — the second Edit may target lines that the first Edit just shifted. Parallel reads followed by a single reasoning step, then sequential writes, is the safe default.
