Does jj work well with parallel agents?

The current problem that I often have is that I want to work on several things in parallel through several agents, always forget to do worktrees, then the different branches of work tend to step on each other Does JJ make it simpler?

jj supports workspaces, akin to git's worktrees. They've felt pretty natural for me to use.

The only caveat is that if you're in jj repo that uses git colocation, only your main workspace will have a `.git/` directory. When you have other infra set up that assumes you're in a valid git repo, this can be a little annoying.
