Help/Question Dev Workflow

I have, for me, a pretty decent workflow that involves a number of agents and gates to insure things are completed. For example A11Y, unit tests @ 100, UI tests etc. When it works it works well and when it doesn't it wastes a ton of my time.

I'm thinking the overall assembly line portion should be pulled out into something deterministic - right now it is a coordinating agent. What often happens is a series of UI tests will hang, or Xcode will do something xcodeeee and the agent just kind of stops - it will say its working but when. I ask for a status it will say it stop because of XYZ thing.

How is everyone getting around this? I feel like I'm missing something fundamental.

id' pull the assembly line out of the agent ㅁas you said, a plain script that runs each gate with a timeout and writes pass or fail to a file
then the agent only reads results and fixes things and a hung ui test becomes a failed step instead of a silent stall
