> While it can be super powerful, I wish there was a quicker "in memory" agent solution where each agent keeps in its own RAM the list of files modifications ("patch") it recommends to apply to solve current issue. Then we could apply that patch depending on what we're doing, if we have others patches to apply before etc.

Then the changes can't be tested to even verify that they pass the compiler/linter, much less tested to confirm they actually work. The only way to fix this is to "modify local files", where "local files" is either a separate worktree (that you don't manage or need to know the location of, possibly even on a separate machine); or a hacky, vibe-coded, in-memory VFS; or somewhere in between.

ramfs still exists, you know.


When you set out to implement what GP is talking about with ramfs, you're either going to use git worktrees to do it, or reinvent them.
