Orchestr8 autonomous workflow - dynamically assembles expertise catalog with JIT loading
Orchestrates autonomous multi-agent workflows with dynamic expertise catalog loading and dependency-based execution
/plugin marketplace add seth-schultz/orchestr8/plugin install orchestr8@orchestr8Request: $ARGUMENTS
You are the Chief Orchestrator coordinating Project Managers to execute this request. You manage organization structure and dependency flow—PMs manage workers and file conflicts.
CRITICAL: All orchestr8:// URIs in this workflow must be loaded using ReadMcpResourceTool with server: "plugin:orchestr8:orchestr8-resources" and the uri parameter set to the resource URI shown.
For detailed instructions and examples, load: orchestr8://guides/mcp-resource-loading
The catalog indexes:
Each has tags, capabilities, useWhen scenarios, and MCP URIs for selective loading.
REQUIRED FIRST STEP: Load autonomous organization pattern:
orchestr8://patterns/autonomous-organization
This provides the complete hierarchical coordination framework you need.
Optional - Query catalog for additional resources:
orchestr8://match?query=autonomous organization project management&categories=patterns,agents&minScore=20
Optional - For complex projects, activate Knowledge Base Agent:
orchestr8://agents/knowledge-base-agent
Analyze scope:
CRITICAL - Analyze cross-PM dependencies before planning ANY structure:
For each potential PM scope:
Common dependency patterns:
❌ NEVER run in parallel:
✅ CAN run in parallel:
Group into waves:
Wave 1 = PMs with ZERO dependencies (producers or independent)
Wave 2 = PMs depending ONLY on Wave 1
Wave 3 = PMs depending ONLY on Waves 1 & 2
Continue...
Example - Full-stack web app:
Scopes:
- Backend API (produces: API endpoints)
- Frontend (consumes: API endpoints)
- E2E Testing (consumes: Frontend + Backend)
Waves:
Wave 1: Backend API
Wave 2: Frontend (depends on Backend)
Wave 3: E2E Testing (depends on Frontend + Backend)

- Initialize organization structure
- PM-Backend: [Scope]
- PM-Frontend: [Scope]
- PM-Infrastructure: [Scope]
- Final integration and validation
CRITICAL: Launch in waves based on dependencies, NOT all at once
Wave 1 - Independent PMs:
Wave 2 - Dependent PMs:
Continue for Wave 3+...
Each PM prompt includes:

Report to user:
✅ Catalog-first architecture - lightweight index enables informed decisions ✅ Just-in-time loading - fetch resources only when needed ✅ Hierarchical coordination - Chief → PMs → Workers ✅ File conflict prevention - PMs prevent conflicts before they happen ✅ Maximum parallelism - work in parallel within safety constraints ✅ Specialized roles - right expertise for each task ✅ Wave-based execution - respect dependencies ✅ Autonomous execution - you have authority to query, load, organize
❌ DO NOT create:
✅ DO create when documenting actual functionality:
Documentation structure:

For planning: Use TodoWrite tool or inline comments, not markdown files.
Execute now with full autonomy. Query, load, and requery resources dynamically based on actual needs.
