What you'll learn

Create a worktree for every task

Give each agent task its own Git worktree that is created, used and removed cleanly.

Set sandbox boundaries

Decide which files, commands and network access an agent is allowed during execution.

Build the execution harness

Connect task intake, isolation and boundaries into one repeatable run.

Keep your own branch isolated

Let background agents work without changing your working branch.

Why this topic matters

An agent with direct access to your repository can overwrite your work, collide with other tasks and run commands it should never run. In this hands-on session we build the execution layer: an ephemeral Git worktree for each task and sandbox boundaries around what the agent can touch. You leave with a harness pattern you can run on your own repository. Part 2 of 4 in the Software Factory series.
