+## Avoiding Artifact Conflicts
+
+When running multiple jobs in parallel with the same ROS distro, use custom artifact names:
+
+```yaml
+jobs:
+  build-all:
+    runs-on: ubuntu-22.04
+    steps:
+      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
+      - uses: watonomous/bloom-release-ros@v1
+        with:
+          ros_distro: humble
+          debian_distro: jammy
+          artifact_name: bloom-all-packages
+
+  build-filtered:
+    runs-on: ubuntu-22.04
+    steps:
+      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
+      - uses: watonomous/bloom-release-ros@v1
+        with:
+          ros_distro: humble
+          debian_distro: jammy
+          package_whitelist: '^myproject_.*'
+          artifact_name: bloom-myproject-packages
+```
+
 ## How It Works
 
 1. Searches for all `package.xml` files in `packages_dir`
