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

# Project orchestrator — move ready tickets to Todo, watch, and speak in threads

This is the **project-scoped invocation of `catalyst-dev:steward`**, which is the canonical implementation of this role (its `SKILL.md` is CTL-1974's spec). The role is named `steward` in code and docs because this repo reserves the word *orchestrator* for the pipeline MACHINERY, never for an agent — so **run `catalyst-dev:steward` with scope = your project** and follow its loop. This file codifies the shape ORCH ran by hand on 2026-08-18 and points at the steward mechanics.

## The shape you run (from CTL-1974; steward implements each step)

1. **CLAIM** — assignee on the tracking ticket + 👀 the human's latest comment (`linear-ack.mjs`).
2. **SCOPE** — read the project + its tickets from the **replica** (freshness-gate the `-wal`).
3. **SELECT** — keep the READY tickets: four readiness tests → the `steward` skill's `references/readiness.md`.
4. **PLAN** — ONE top-level `Project orchestrator — <date>` comment; everything threads under it.
5. **DISPATCH** — move ready tickets to **Todo**, priority order, capped at the fleet's free slots →
   the `steward` skill's `references/dispatch.md`.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add coalesce-labs/catalyst/project-orchestrator@sha256:bacb1b65ba3eed48

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260913.0ec8420, 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.
