Prevention Measures in Place
- stale-pr-cleanup.py: Auto-closes PRs stale >4 days in timmy-config
- pr-capacity.py: Hard cap of 10 concurrent PRs per repo
- burn-rotation.py: Distributes new work across repos to prevent single-repo concentration
- Pre-flight check (
scripts/check-existing-prs.sh): Blocks creation of duplicate PRs
