Yes, I'm using an agent orchestrator to write code. In fact, a couple of days before Anthropic introduced agent teams, I built a custom tool for myself inside emacs: https://github.com/hrishikeshs/magnus

I basically cycle through prompts and approve/deny/guide agents while looking at the buffer and thinking traces as text scrolls through. It has changed my life :)

Have you considered integrating with worktrees via Magit to have multiple agents working across different changesets of a repo?
Haven't really spent time working with more than 2-3 agents at a time. I quickly become the bottleneck when I review the diffs/plans and can't really context switch that much during development. The sweet-spot is 2-3 agents co-ordinating at a time and me overseeing everything
