Hello Folks!

Agentic Orchestrator is a terminal tool that takes complex feature requests and builds them by orchestrating coding agents through a series of phases that emulate a full-fledged engineering flow: requirements clarification, research, design, multi-phase planning, implementation, and review. It is a single pane of glass for all your features and exposes post-publish utilities such as resolving merge conflicts and responding to review comments.

The key design choice is that this is deterministic orchestration on top of undeterministic agents: things like "human review gates", phase transitions, and artifact validations are all done by the harness in GO, while the agents take on "bite-sized" tasks.

In the lifecycle of a feature, human judgment is typically needed during the "first half" of the workflow (from clarification to planning), depending on how much the developer wants to be involved. The "second half" (multi-phased implementation/review loop) typically executes while "AFK" unless the tool is unable to make progress without human intervention.

Agentic Orchestrator is Apache2.0 and can be installed via Homebrew. You should be able to run it on macOS, Linux and WSL as long as you have `gh` and at least one of the following coding agents: OpenCode (tested with GLM-5.2), Codex, or Claude Code. While having a single coding agent is enough, in my setup I like to mix and match different agents/models for different phases (eg: claude/opus4.7 for planning, opencode/glm5.2 for implementing, codex/gpt5.5 for reviewing).

I hope you enjoy it. Happy to answer any questions!
