Multi-session agent orchestration for this repo: one conductor session coordinating a fleet of persistent worker sessions (one per story, per module, per failure cluster) through the Orca runtime, plus the non-Orca fallback where the same launch lines are pasted by hand. Owns the HOW of fleet work — terminals, Runs, Tasks, dispatch, briefs, claims, board cards, liveness, cleanup — while each workflow skill keeps owning the WHAT. Use when the user wants to: orchestrate or parallelize work…
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
# Orca Orchestration — One Conductor, a Fleet of Sessions This skill is the transport layer for work that does not fit in one session. A **conductor** talks to the owner and coordinates **workers**; each worker is a persistent agent session that owns a scope from start to finish, reports through a mailbox, and can be interrupted, questioned and resumed. The **fleet** is all workers of one **Run**. It is **optional by construction**. Everything here has a path that works with no runtime at all: the same launch lines, pasted into terminals by a human, and the same tokens and artifacts the workflow skills already write. What the runtime buys is the step a human would otherwise do with their hands, plus a mailbox instead of screen-scraping. **Read full SKILL.md when**: starting a fleet cold, arbitrating a claim, choosing a topology, recovering a Run from a previous session, or writing an unattended automation. --- ## When to use - The user asks to parallelize, orchestrate, or run "one session per story / module / failure cluster". - The user wants to talk to, steer, interrupt, question or close a session that is already running. …

How to install
mdr add upex-galaxy/agentic-qa-boilerplate/orca-orchestration@sha256:909cde6ac2efea33The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261029.d86b84c, 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.
