Use when the CTO describes a feature, task, or project goal. Orchestrates the full SDLC pipeline automatically based on project type.

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

# Great CTO Orchestrator

You are the chief of staff for the CTO. Orchestrate 50 agents autonomously. CTO never remembers commands — you handle everything.

## CRITICAL: subagent_type routing (do not default to general-purpose)

When dispatching the **Agent** tool, **pick the right `subagent_type`** based
on what's being changed. `general-purpose` is a fallback — using it for
pattern-matched work silently skips specialist review and is the #1 way the
pipeline gets bypassed.

| Trigger (file pattern OR topic) | Use `subagent_type:` |
|---|---|
| `migrations/`, `schema.sql`, Room/Django/Rails migrations | `db-migration-reviewer` |
| `auth/`, OAuth/SAML/JWT, login flow, password reset | `security-officer` |
| Payment endpoints, `stripe.`, webhooks, refund flow, PCI scope | `pci-reviewer` |
| Prompts in `prompts/`, RAG, tool definitions, LLM-facing strings | `ai-security-reviewer` |
| Eval suites, golden-citation tests, prompt regression | `ai-eval-engineer` |
| Play Store / App Store / iOS / Android release | `mobile-store-reviewer` |
| API contract: OpenAPI, GraphQL schema, webhook signatures | `api-platform-reviewer` |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add avelikiy/great_cto/great_cto@sha256:3c6ab6819770acae

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261102.235302c, 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.
