Technical implementation consultation for Conductor orchestrator. Advises on implementation approach, dependency choices, and coding patterns. Can approve dependencies under size threshold. Escalates large dependencies or breaking tooling changes to Board of Directors.
Manage Conductor tracks, phases, and tasks. Use when working with track status, updating task markers, or navigating between tracks. Enforces the Evaluate-Loop workflow.
Evaluate-Loop Step 1: PLAN. Use this agent when starting a new track or feature to create a detailed execution plan. Reads spec.md, loads project context, and produces a phased plan.md with specific tasks, acceptance criteria, and dependencies. Triggered by: 'plan feature', 'create plan', 'start track', '/conductor implement' (planning phase).
Architecture consultation for Conductor orchestrator. Makes decisions about system design, patterns, component boundaries, and technical architecture. Can approve architectural choices within established patterns. Escalates novel patterns or breaking changes to Board of Directors.
Specialized business logic evaluator for the Evaluate-Loop. Use this for evaluating tracks that implement core product logic — pipelines, dependency resolution, state machines, pricing/tier enforcement, packaging. Checks feature correctness against product rules, edge cases, state transitions, data flow, and user journey completeness. Dispatched by loop-execution-evaluator when track type is 'business-logic', 'generator', or 'core-feature'. Triggered by: 'evaluate logic', 'test business rules', 'verify business rules', 'check feature'.
Specialized integration evaluator for the Evaluate-Loop. Use this for evaluating tracks that integrate external services — Supabase auth/DB, Stripe payments, Gemini API, third-party APIs. Checks API contracts, auth flows, data persistence, error recovery, environment config, and end-to-end flow integrity. Dispatched by loop-execution-evaluator when track type is 'integration', 'auth', 'payments', or 'api'. Triggered by: 'evaluate integration', 'test auth flow', 'check API', 'verify payments'.
Master coordinator for the Evaluate-Loop workflow v3. Supports GOAL-DRIVEN entry, PARALLEL execution via worker agents, BOARD OF DIRECTORS deliberation, and message bus coordination. Dispatches specialized workers dynamically, monitors via message bus, aggregates results. Uses metadata.json v3 for parallel state tracking. Use when: '/go <goal>', '/conductor implement', 'start track', 'run the loop', 'orchestrate', 'automate track'.
You MUST use this before any creative work - creating features, building components, adding functionality, or modifying behavior. Explores user intent, requirements and design before implementation.
Technical leadership guidance for engineering teams, architecture decisions, and technology strategy. Includes tech debt analyzer, team scaling calculator, engineering metrics frameworks, technology evaluation tools, and ADR templates. Use when assessing technical debt, scaling engineering teams, evaluating technologies, making architecture decisions, establishing engineering metrics, or when user mentions CTO, tech debt, technical debt, team scaling, architecture decisions, technology evaluation, engineering metrics, DORA metrics, or technology strategy.
Loads relevant patterns and known errors before track planning. Searches conductor/knowledge/ for solutions we've used before and errors we've encountered. Injects findings into the planner prompt to prevent reinventing solutions and repeating mistakes. Triggered automatically by orchestrator before PLAN step.
The single entry point to the Conductor system - state your goal and everything is handled automatically
Evaluate-Loop Step 2: EVALUATE PLAN. Use this agent to verify an execution plan before any code is written. Checks scope alignment, overlap with completed work, DAG validity, dependency correctness, task clarity, and invokes Board of Directors for major tracks. Outputs PASS/FAIL verdict. Triggered by: 'evaluate plan', 'review plan', 'check plan before executing'. Always runs after loop-planner and before loop-executor.
Evaluate-Loop Step 5: FIX. Use this agent when an evaluation (plan or execution) returns FAIL. Takes the evaluator's fix list, creates specific fix tasks in plan.md, executes the fixes, and triggers re-evaluation. Handles the loop-back mechanism of the Evaluate-Loop. Triggered by: evaluation FAIL verdict, 'fix issues', 'address evaluation failures'.
Evaluate-Loop Step 4: EVALUATE EXECUTION. This is the dispatcher agent — it determines the track type and invokes the correct specialized evaluator. Does NOT run a generic checklist. Instead dispatches to: eval-ui-ux (screens/design), eval-code-quality (features/infrastructure), eval-integration (APIs/auth/payments), eval-business-logic (generator/rules/state). Triggered by: 'evaluate execution', 'review implementation', 'check build', '/phase-review'. Always runs after loop-executor.
File-based message queue for inter-agent coordination. Used by workers AND board directors to communicate. Provides: progress updates, task completion signals, file locking, board deliberation. Core infrastructure for parallel execution.
Evaluate-Loop Step 3: EXECUTE. Use this agent to implement tasks from a verified plan. Works through plan.md tasks sequentially, writes code, updates plan.md after every task, and commits at checkpoints. Uses TDD where applicable. Triggered by: 'execute plan', 'implement track', 'build feature', '/conductor implement' (execution phase). Only runs after plan has passed evaluation.
Harshly critique strategic documents (validation reports, competitive analyses, business plans) to identify blind spots, challenge assumptions, expose weaknesses, and generate Conductor-aligned action plans. Use when you need brutal honesty, "red team" analysis, or want to stress-test your thinking before execution. Applies multiple analytical frameworks (pre-mortem, assumption hunting, competitive gaps, market dynamics) and synthesizes findings into executive summaries with specific, actionable recommendations mapped to Conductor context artifacts.
Use when completing tasks, implementing major features, or before merging to verify work meets requirements
Use when receiving code review feedback, before implementing suggestions, especially if feedback seems unclear or technically questionable - requires technical rigor and verification, not performative agreement or blind implementation
Use when encountering any bug, test failure, or unexpected behavior, before proposing fixes
Use when starting feature work that needs isolation from current workspace or before executing implementation plans - creates isolated git worktrees with smart directory selection and safety verification
Use when starting any conversation - establishes how to find and use skills, requiring Skill tool invocation before ANY response including clarifying questions
Use when implementing any feature or bugfix, before writing implementation code
Use when creating new skills, editing existing skills, or verifying skills work before deployment
Parallel execution engine for dispatching worker agents. Used by conductor-orchestrator to spawn multiple workers simultaneously from DAG parallel groups. Handles dispatch, monitoring, aggregation, and failure recovery.

Specialized code quality evaluator for the Evaluate-Loop. Use this for evaluating code implementation tracks where the deliverable is functional code — features, API routes, state management, utilities.

Use when you have a written implementation plan to execute in a separate session with review checkpoints
Use when implementation is complete, all tests pass, and you need to decide how to integrate the work - guides completion of development work by presenting structured options for merge, PR, or cleanup
Runs after every track completion to extract learnings. Analyzes what worked, what failed, and what patterns emerged. Updates conductor/knowledge/patterns.md with new solutions and errors.json with new error patterns. Proposes skill updates if workflow improvements are identified. Triggered automatically by orchestrator after COMPLETE step.
Use when executing implementation plans with independent tasks in the current session
Use when about to claim work is complete, fixed, or passing, before committing or creating PRs - requires running verification commands and confirming output before making any success claims; evidence before assertions always
Use when you have a spec or requirements for a multi-step task, before touching code
