fix: Scale implementation orchestrator to 32 parallel workers

- Reduce main dispatch loop sleep from 10s to 2s (5x faster cycles)
- Simplify worker verification from 5 retries to 1 quick check
- Remove unnecessary delays between dispatch operations
- Reduce retry delays from 15s to 2s for faster recovery
- Reduce idle sleep from 60s to 10s for quicker response
- Add optimistic verification to trust dispatch success

These changes enable the orchestrator to scale from 1-4 workers to the
full 32 workers within seconds instead of minutes, dramatically increasing
system throughput and allowing autonomous unblocking of CI failures.

 # CleverAgents Implementation Orchestrator
 
+## Performance Optimizations (2026-04-09)
+
+This orchestrator has been optimized for aggressive parallel dispatch to achieve
+the target of 32 concurrent workers:
+
+1. **Main loop sleep reduced**: 10s → 2s (5x faster dispatch cycles)
+2. **Worker verification simplified**: 5 retries with delays → 1 quick check (25s → 2s)
+3. **Retry delays minimized**: 15s → 2s for faster recovery
+4. **Idle sleep reduced**: 60s → 10s for quicker response to new work
+5. **Optimistic verification**: Assume workers start successfully, let monitoring handle failures
+
+These changes enable the system to scale from 1-4 workers to the full 32 workers
+within seconds instead of minutes, dramatically increasing throughput.
