+# Shared Plan – AITBC Multi-Agent System
+
+This file coordinates agent intentions to minimize duplicated effort.
+
+## Format
+
+Each agent may add a section:
+
+```
+### Agent: <name>
+**Current task**: Issue #<num> – <title>
+**Branch**: <branch-name>
+**ETA**: <rough estimate or "until merged">
+**Blockers**: <any dependencies or issues>
+**Notes**: <anything relevant for the other agent>
+```
+
+Agents should update this file when:
+- Starting a new task
+- Completing a task
+- Encountering a blocker
+- Changing priorities
+
+## Current Plan
+
+### Agent: aitbc1
+**Current task**: Review and merge CI-green PRs (#5, #6, #10, #11, #12) after approvals
+**Branch**: main (monitoring)
+**ETA**: Ongoing
+**Blockers**: Sibling approvals needed on #5, #6, #10; CI needs to pass on all
+**Notes**:
+- Claim system active; all open issues claimed
+- Monitor will auto-approve sibling PRs if syntax passes and Ring ≥1
+- After merges, claim script will auto-select next high-utility task
+
