GitHub Stacked PRs look like they might be useful for us:

> **[GitHub Stacked PRs](https://github.github.com/gh-stack/)**
>
> Break large changes into small, reviewable, stacked pull requests with first-class GitHub support.

Nice feature, will try when available. I can see it being very helpful when AI does large chunks of work which humans want to review. Have you used it? How do you like it?

I agree that AI is already helping make larger changes. And also that this is problematic with the current process that we have when @Nick-Hall tries to do a bunch of merges all it once. How can one PR be developed that relies on a stack of other PRs? How can we properly test the integration? This might help.

I haven’t tried it yet but did apply for the early access.

Oh. Does that mean I could stack my PR on someone else’s PR? Nice.
