we've been running AGENTS.md in production on helios (https://github.com/BintzGavin/helios https://github.com/BintzGavin/helios) for a while now. each role owns specific files. no overlap means zero merge conflicts across 1800+ autonomous PRs. planning happens in `.sys/plans/{role}/` as written contracts before execution starts. time is the mutex. AGENTS.md defines the vision. agents read the gap between vision and reality, then pull toward it. no manager, no orchestration. we wrote about it here: https://agnt.one/blog/black-hole-architecture https://agnt.one/blog/black-hole-architecture agents ship features autonomously. 90% of PRs are zero human in the loop. the one pain point is refactors. cross-cutting changes don't map cleanly to single-role ownership AGENTS.md works when it encodes constraints that eliminate coordination. if it's just a roadmap, it won't help much.
