Orchestrator Framework
This skill provides shared reference documentation for all orchestrator skills in the maister plugin. It is NOT an executable skill - orchestrators reference these patterns and implement them for their specific domain.
Purpose
Reduce duplication across orchestrators by documenting common patterns once:
- Phase Blocks: Simple phase structure with inline transitions (
→ Pause,→ AUTO-CONTINUE) — these are the only two transition types; seeorchestrator-patterns.md§ 2 for semantics - State Management:
orchestrator-state.ymlschema and operations - Phase Gates: Pause behavior and user prompts
- Initialization: Task directory setup, metadata, task creation patterns
How Orchestrators Use This
Each orchestrator reads the framework reference file at initialization (Step 1):
### Step 1: Load Framework Patterns
**Read the framework reference file NOW using the Read tool:**
1. `../orchestrator-framework/references/orchestrator-patterns.md`
Reference Files
| File | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| references/orchestrator-patterns.md | Delegation rules, interactive mode, state schema, initialization, context passing, issue resolution |
| references/orchestrator-creation-checklist.md | Authoring checklist for creating new orchestrators (not loaded at runtime) |
Key Principles
All orchestrators follow these principles:
- State-Driven Execution:
orchestrator-state.ymlis source of truth - Resume Capability: Any orchestrator can be paused and resumed
- Interactive: Pause after each phase for user review
- User-Confirmed Rollback: Never auto-rollback without user approval
- Task Progress: Always track progress with TaskCreate/TaskUpdate tools
- Standards Discovery: Reference

NOT an Executable Skill
This skill does NOT get invoked directly. It exists to:
- Provide discoverable documentation for orchestrator patterns
- Serve as single source of truth for common logic
- Enable consistent behavior across all orchestrators
When building new orchestrators, reference these patterns rather than duplicating them.
