Orchestrator sits above your AI coding agents and manages the chaos that comes with running several at once. Instead of juggling terminal windows and GitHub tabs, you get one board that shows every agent, its branch, its pull request, and what it needs from you.
The core idea is a two-level structure. A main orchestrator agent breaks a goal into pieces, starts a worker for each piece in its own isolated Git worktree, and routes feedback back to the right agent automatically. Workers never step on each other's branches.
- Kanban board, placed by facts. Lanes reflect real state: what the agent is doing, CI results, review status. Nothing needs manual updating.
- CI and review routing. When a check fails or a reviewer leaves a comment, Orchestrator sends it back to the agent that owns that branch, with the log or thread attached.
- Agent reviewer. A built-in reviewer agent reads every PR before a human does and returns findings to the same worker session.
- 38 supported agents. Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, Aider, Goose, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot, and more. Each project picks its own worker, orchestrator, and reviewer agents independently.
- Chat and native terminal. Work with an agent through structured chat or open its own TUI in the same worktree. Switch between them without losing context.
- Mobile companion. The free iPhone, iPad, and Android app pairs by QR code. Get notified when an agent asks a question, reply in chat, or approve a plan without opening your laptop.
It runs locally, free, with no account required. You bring your own API keys; Orchestrator doesn't proxy calls, so billing stays with each provider. Cloud plans add hosted sandboxes so agents keep running after the laptop closes.
Compared with other AI coding agent orchestrators, Orchestrator's focus is the feedback loop: failed CI goes to the right agent, review threads return to the session that wrote the code, and the board surfaces only what actually needs a human decision. The desktop app runs on macOS, Windows, and Linux.
Every Sunday we deconstruct one proprietary app and pick the best open source alternatives worth switching to.
