    Hey HN, This is my take on the agent harness. Everything on an isometric map. Agents are grouped into "buildings" that run in a sequence or a loop; e.g., the CodeForge has an agent that writes a PRD, another one that implements, and a third that reviews.

The Github page also talks about some of the tricks you need to make the rhythm part of the game play nice with the dungeon crawling part.
