Ask HN: Agentic Coding for Messy Multirepos?

A developer on Hacker News is seeking a tool for agentic coding in messy multirepo environments, where multiple services and a shared library reside in separate repos and agents must avoid conflicting modifications to shared resources like database schemas. The developer has tried worktrees and container-based isolation but wants a project that offers a decent interface for managing such setups.

My job has quite an annoying "dev" environment setup, with a slew of scripts, a shared library that works as interface for different services. the shared library and all services live in separate repos. worktrees have worked sort of, but i need to be careful to break things down in a way that no two agents are modifying db schema at the same time, since they share resources. i explored container use and dev containers as ways to setup environments for my agents to run in their isolated box, but wanted to know if there's any good project that solves this problem while retaining a decent interface. opinions?
