Why
An issue that is too big for one agent was getting several branches and several PRs. That splits the history, the PR summary and the CHANGELOG entry across pieces of one issue. The rule is now one issue, one branch, one PR, even when several agents build it.
What changes
Docs only. One file,
.claude/skills/lane-orders/SKILL.md:origin/devand names it. Each agent works on its own part branch, then fetches, merges the issue branch, reruns its targeted tests and pushes to the issue branch. A rejected push means fetch, merge and push again. No force-push.## <your part>. One agent writes the top summary and the single CHANGELOG entry. Agents that fix findings push to the PR's own branch.Test plan
