STORM: State Management for Multi-Agent Code Collaboration

A new system called STORM (STate-ORiented Management) addresses silent conflicts in multi-agent code editing by mediating agent interactions with shared workspaces. Unlike existing approaches that use workspace isolation and post-hoc merging, STORM detects and resolves conflicting edits at write time, ensuring each agent operates on a consistent view. Evaluated on Commit0 and PaperBench across multiple LLMs, STORM outperformed the git-worktree baseline by +18.7 on Commit0-Lite and +1.4 on PaperBench. The paper is published on arXiv under identifier 2605.20563.
