Using one AI agent at a time in 2026 feels like deploying via FTP in 2015. It works, but you're leaving 80% of the throughput on the table. I've been running 5-12 agents in parallel for the past month. The productivity difference isn't incremental - it's a step change. One agent on auth, one on tests, one on docs, one on API endpoints.
