Project Orchestrate

Sets up a persistent, git-tracked project workspace under .tasks/ — a high-level plan split into phases, each phase into trackable task files. Designed for hand-off across multiple agent sessions.

When to Use

• Starting a new software project that will span multiple sessions
• User has a brief.md describing the project
• User wants multi-phase work with isolated phase execution

Process

digraph orchestrate {
    "brief.md exists?" [shape=diamond];
    "Run interview" [shape=box];
    "Read brief.md" [shape=box];
    "Ask: public or private repo?" [shape=diamond];
    "gh repo create + push" [shape=box];
    "Create .tasks/ structure" [shape=box];
    "Generate phase-1 tasks" [shape=box];
    "Create phase 2+ stubs" [shape=box];
    "Commit + push" [shape=box];
    "Instruct human" [shape=doublecircle];

    "brief.md exists?" -> "Read brief.md" [label="yes"];
    "brief.md exists?" -> "Run interview" [label="no"];
    "Read brief.md" -> "Ask: public or private repo?";
    "Run interview" -> "Ask: public or private repo?";
    "Ask: public or private repo?" -> "gh repo create + push";
    "gh repo create + push" -> "Create .tasks/ structure";
