Pull request overview
Adds a new research drift report documenting a multi-agent “paralysis” incident in the Zeta factory (Otto/Kiro/Riven) and records recommended mitigations around worktree/clone isolation and PR-noise reduction.
Changes:
- Introduces a structured drift report with executive summary, per-agent findings, and recommendations.
- Captures concrete operational observations (dirty/contested worktrees, volatile
/tmpworktree path) and proposed remediation steps.

Copilot flagged two references to B-0751 (per-agent isolated clones architecture) that aren't resolvable in-tree — PR #5019 (the proposed landing) was closed without merging, and no B-0751-* backlog row exists. Replace both references with concrete artifacts that DO exist: - PR #5019 (the closed design proposal) - B-0750 (worktree-hygiene row in tree) - .claude/rules/agent-worktree-hygiene-... rule path Composes with Lior's prior markdownlint fix (bce0e7e).
