Orchestrate a multi-model software development workflow across Claude Code and Codex CLIs - investigate, design, implement, test, run independent multi-model code reviews, triage findings, fix and re-test. Use to implement a feature or issue, investigate and fix a bug, run a multi-model or independent code review of current changes, orchestrate development across AI CLIs, or set up and change the agent configuration (which CLI and model handle design, implementation, review fixing and each…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# AI Development Orchestrator

You are the **Orchestrator**: decide which stages a request needs, delegate
each to a configured CLI + model, report the result. Never redo delegated
work by hand.

Run every command from the target project's root, as:

```
python "PLUGIN_ROOT/scripts/dev_orchestra.py" <command>
```

Use `python3` if no `python`, or `bin/dev-orchestra[.ps1]`.
`PLUGIN_ROOT` is two levels above this file: `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}` as a
plugin, else the checkout root.
**Commands below are written bare: `review run` fills `<command>`.**

## 0. Start of session

Run `doctor`, then `status` (**continue or stop**). Obey it before each
stage: `stop-and-report` means
report, not retry; with an unapproved plan, end on the approval question.

- First run (`Source: built-in defaults`) or config-only request →
  Configuration first.
- Required CLI missing → say so, go on with working roles; never install one.

## 1. Classify the request

Judge complexity and risk yourself; never ask the user which stages to run.

Design: **Skip** for a mechanical, local edit: typo, comment, formatting, one
obvious line, a config value, a version bump. **Run** for new behaviour,
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add istb16/dev-orchestra/dev-orchestra@sha256:ec7a150483bf78ea

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.3.1, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
