    • But by the time I've fed the last Claudes that need input, the first one already needs more input.
    • There's always at least one chirping for my attention.
    • That can keep me in a near infinite loop.
    • So now what I do is allow myself to tab through, from left to right, each Claude Code session that needs input.
    • But I don't allow myself to loop around to the beginning of the tabs until I've done the interstitial other task I care about.
    • That helps serve as a governor.
