Could you build this?
Partial Basic Git automation is straightforward, but coordinating parallel agent code changes to proactively prevent or resolve semantic and structural merge conflicts across an entire codebase requires advanced AST-aware locking or operational transformation.
What it would actually take: The tool must parse project ASTs (e.g., using Tree-sitter) and track symbol-level dependency graphs across concurrent agent workspaces to implement fine-grained semantic locks rather than simple file locks. The core difficulty is predicting whether two divergent edits by separate LLM agents will introduce compile-time or semantic breakage upon merging, requiring AST reconciliation, automated rebasing, and incremental type checking. This requires a developer tools engineer experienced with compiler toolchains, Git internals, and concurrent programming systems.

Concerns raised: How it prevents conflicts (rather than just warns about them)
