What is the Orchestrator skill used for?

It is used to manage a complete development cycle—including design docs, coding, peer reviews, and QA—as an automated, non-blocking background process within Claude Code.

Can I customize the phases?

The skill follows a standardized four-phase workflow (Design, Develop, Review, QA) but can be extended via the platform-specific skills and project worktrees it interacts with.

Does this skill block my terminal while working?

No, it is built on a non-blocking principle. Each phase runs in the background, allowing you to continue using Claude Code while the agents work.

How are workflow states saved?

The skill saves the current progress, task IDs, and phase status in a local .claude-work/workflow.json file, ensuring context is never lost.

What happens if an agent encounters an error?

The orchestrator detects 'blocked' statuses and provides the user with clear options to retry the phase, skip it, or abort the workflow entirely.

Productividad y Flujo de Trabajo

Manages multi-phase asynchronous development workflows including design, implementation, code review, and quality assurance.

Acerca de

The Orchestrator skill transforms Claude Code into a sophisticated project secretary that coordinates complex development tasks without blocking your main interaction. By managing a persistent state in .claude-work/workflow.json, it seamlessly transitions between specialized phases—Design, Develop, Review, and QA—launching background agents for each step. This skill is ideal for high-level project management within the CLI, ensuring that every feature follows a rigorous development lifecycle with standardized handoffs and progress logging.
