Verified via API on 2026-04-21 (pass 31): `GET /repos/Timmy_Foundation/timmy-config/pulls?state=open` returns `[]`.
## Root Cause Analysis
The backlog accumulated because:
1. Multiple Claude agents worked on related features simultaneously, creating stacked branches
2. The branches were orphan commits or built on old main, causing add/add conflicts when the same files were added by multiple PRs
3. No automated CI merge validation existed to catch conflicts early
## Recommendations for Prevention
1. **Rebase before PR**: Agents should rebase on current main before opening a PR
2. **Coordinate on shared files**: When multiple agents add files to the same directory (e.g., `evaluations/adversary/corpora/`), a coordinator should sequence them
3. **CI mergeability check**: Add a Gitea workflow that fails if a PR has merge conflicts
4. **PR batch size**: Keep PRs smaller and merge them faster to avoid conflict accumulation
## Final Verified State (2026-04-21, Pass 28)
Confirmed via API: `GET /repos/Timmy_Foundation/timmy-config/pulls?state=open` returns `[]`.
**timmy-config open PRs: 0**
Issue #1471 is fully resolved. PR #1625 is open and mergeable.
## Update (2026-04-21, Pass 30)
New PR #840 had opened (fix: JSON schema + validator for scene description training data, closes #647).
Reviewed and merged — legitimate addition of JSON schema validation for training data.
**timmy-config open PRs: 0** (confirmed post-merge)
