Archived: 2025-11-03 Reason: Architectural issue - "orchestrator agent" was actually Claude coordinating Claude

Problem:

• When Task tool invoked "orchestrator", it loaded orchestrator.md as Claude's system prompt
• But it was still the same Claude instance making decisions
• Created logical impossibility: "Claude, invoke yourself to tell yourself to invoke agents"
• Result: Claude could still make adaptive decisions to skip agents

Solution:

• Moved all coordination logic to commands/auto-implement.md
• Made Claude's coordination role explicit
• No separate "orchestrator agent" - just coordination instructions directly to Claude
• Same checkpoints, simpler architecture, more honest design

Migration:

• Old: /auto-implement → invokes orchestrator agent → orchestrator coordinates
• New: /auto-implement → Claude reads coordination steps → Claude coordinates directly

Replacement: See plugins/autonomous-dev/commands/auto-implement.md for the new coordination workflow

Files affected by this change:

• commands/auto-implement.md - Now contains all coordination logic
• hooks/enforce_pipeline_complete.py - New enforcement hook
• All documentation updated to remove "orchestrator agent" references

This file is kept for historical reference and in case we need to restore parts of the logic.
