Running multiple projects with agentic development introduces mental overhead and context-switching challenges. Key practices include limiting concurrent projects to related domains, using plan-before-build workflows, reviewing AI-generated code carefully, and 'compounding' agent learnings by updating AGENTS.md files after mistakes. Session hooks in tools like Cursor can automate this compounding. The author emphasizes that speed gains from agentic coding must be directed at the right priorities, and intrinsic motivation should drive what gets built rather than the mere ability to build it quickly.
