orchestrate

orchestrate is a command for Claude Code from Pattyboi101/indiestack. It costs 0 tokens per session (377 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that sends one task to several specialised coding agents, such as frontend, backend, DevOps, content, and integrations.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for changes spanning multiple parts of a project, then review each department’s work, flagged issues, cost estimate, and changed files.
Why use it?
It divides a broad task into smaller assignments and coordinates reviews before approved work runs in parallel.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

orchestrate scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Orchestrate — Multi-Department Agent Dispatch

Run the IndieStack orchestrator to delegate a task across department agents.

Usage

The user provides a task after /orchestrate. If no task is given, ask them what they want done.

Run

cd ~/indiestack && python3 .orchestra/orchestrator.py --simple "$ARGUMENTS"

The orchestrator will:

  1. Decompose the task into department assignments (Master, Opus)
  2. Route through Strategy & QA for approval/challenge/veto (Opus)
  3. Dispatch approved work to department agents in parallel (Sonnet/Haiku)
  4. Update memory and save run history

Departments

  • Frontend — routes, components, HTML/CSS
  • Backend — db.py, auth, payments, scripts
  • DevOps — Dockerfile, fly.toml, smoke tests
  • Content/SEO — copy, meta tags, JSON-LD
  • MCP/Integration — mcp_server.py, PyPI
  • Strategy & QA — reviews everything, can veto

After completion

  • Report what each department did and what S&QA flagged
  • Show total cost (equivalent, not actual — we're on subscription)
  • Check if any files were changed: git status --short
  • Ask the user if they want to commit the changes

Notes

  • Config: .orchestra/config.json (budget cap, models, department scopes)
  • Memory grows in .orchestra/memory/ — orchestrator gets smarter over time
  • Logs in .orchestra/logs/, history in .orchestra/history/
  • For the curses dashboard version, user can run directly: python3 .orchestra/orchestrator.py "task"
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
