What is dev-execution-orchestrator?

A development-session tool that carries out steps from plan.md and session.md, files that describe planned work and the current session. It dispatches suitable coding sub-agents, updates progress, and manages execution batches.

Use it during a /run command to execute the next step, a full batch, or a specific available step. It verifies the plan, checks dependencies, and sends each step to an appropriate development agent.

It coordinates planned implementation work and checks that steps are valid and dependencies are complete before running them. It does not mark the overall session as completed.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00043	$0.01321
Opus 5	$0.00022	$0.00660
Sonnet 5	$0.00009	$0.00264
Haiku 4.5	$0.00004	$0.00132

Security

Grade A, and why

dev-execution-orchestrator 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 9d 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.

Dev Execution Orchestrator

This skill orchestrates the execution of development steps defined in the plan.

When to Use

During /run command execution
When executing one or more planned steps
When updating step progress and batch status

Input

sessionPath: Path to the current session (or read from .current-session)
mode: Execution mode:
- next-step: Execute single next available step
- full-batch: Execute all steps in next available batch
- specific-step: Execute a specific step by ID (if dependencies satisfied)
stepId (optional): Specific step ID for specific-step mode

Responsibilities

Load session via session-manager
Read plan.md and session.md via artifact-fs-manager
Verify plan integrity:
- Plan exists and contains Generated Prompts
- Plan matches Session "All Steps Overview"
- No circular dependencies between steps
Determine executable steps:
- Status = NOT_STARTED
- All dependencies have Status = COMPLETED
Dispatch execution to appropriate sub-agents using pre-generated prompts:
- react-frontend-dev
- angular-frontend-dev
- nodejs-backend-dev
- java-backend-developer
- react-test-writer
- backend-test-writer
- database-architect
Update after each step:
- Step status in session.md
- Batch status in Execution Batches
- Progress counter (X/Y steps completed)
Keep global Status = IN_PROGRESS

MUST

Set session Status to IN_PROGRESS at start of execution
Update step status to IN_PROGRESS before dispatching
Update step status to COMPLETED or FAILED after completion
Update progress after each step
NEVER set global session Status to COMPLETED

MUST NOT

Regenerate or alter the plan structure
Modify source code directly (sub-agents do this)
Create new steps not in the plan
Skip dependency validation
Auto-complete the session

Process

Step 1: Load Session and Artifacts

Use session-manager to load current session
Use artifact-fs-manager to read plan.md
Use artifact-fs-manager to read session.md

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.
