# Agent Orchestrator

Agent Orchestrator is a fleet/session orchestration system for AI coding agents. The jleechanorg fork manages workers in isolated git worktrees and routes CI failures, review comments, and status changes back to those workers.

## System Role

- Spawn and manage agent sessions.
- Allocate isolated worktrees and branches.
- Track session metadata under deterministic runtime paths.
- Integrate with GitHub PRs, CI, review comments, notifications, and dashboards.
- Add fork-specific evidence gates, skeptic verification, Beads, OpenClaw integration, and additional agent/runtime plugins.

## Relation To Dark Factory

`inference:` Agent Orchestrator can serve as the agent/session substrate under a [[dark-factory]], especially for PR-shaped work. It does not replace [[dot-pipeline]]; it manages worker lifecycles that a graph runner might invoke.
