🎭 Orchestro

Your AI Development Conductor - From Product Vision to Production Code

Transform product ideas into reality with an intelligent orchestration system that bridges Product Managers, Developers, and AI. Orchestro conducts the entire development symphony: task decomposition, dependency tracking, pattern learning, and real-time progress visualization.

🎯 Why Orchestro?

The Problem:

Product Managers lose track of development progress
Developers struggle with context switching and dependencies
Knowledge is lost between Claude Code sessions
No single source of truth for what's being built

The Solution: Orchestro orchestrates the entire development lifecycle:

npm run migrate

Verify database setup:

# The migrate script will show you all tables created:
# You should see:
# ✅ Running migration: code_entities
# ✅ Running migration: add_tasks_metadata
# ✅ Running migration: fix_status_transition_trigger
# ✅ Running migration: event_queue
# ✅ Running migration: auto_update_user_story_status
# ✅ Running migration: add_task_metadata_fields
# ✅ Running migration: add_pattern_frequency_tracking

# Or verify manually via Supabase dashboard:
# Go to Database → Tables and check all tables are created

Get your credentials:

# From Supabase Dashboard:

# 1. DATABASE_URL (for migrations & MCP server)
#    Settings → Database → Connection String → Transaction mode
#    Example: postgresql://postgres:[password]@db.[project].supabase.co:5432/postgres

# 2. SUPABASE_URL (for API calls)
#    Settings → API → Project URL
#    Example: https://[project].supabase.co

# 3. SUPABASE_SERVICE_KEY (for admin operations - keep secret!)

💡 Real-World Example

Story: E-commerce Checkout Flow

PM writes in dashboard:

"Customer should complete purchase with
credit card payment and email confirmation"

Orchestro decomposes (AI-powered):

✅ Design checkout database schema (2h) - No dependencies
✅ Implement payment service integration (4h) - Depends on: #1
✅ Create checkout API endpoints (3h) - Depends on: #2
✅ Build checkout UI components (4h) - Depends on: #3
✅ Add email notification service (2h) - Depends on: #3
✅ Implement order confirmation flow (3h) - Depends on: #4, #5

Total: 18 hours, 6 tasks, dependencies mapped automatically

Developer flow (with autoAnalyze=true):

// 1. Decompose story (auto-analyzes tasks)
decompose_story("Customer checkout with payment")
// → Creates 6 tasks
// → Auto-generates analysis prompts for tasks without dependencies
// → Returns analysisPrompts[] ready to use

// 2. Claude reviews analysis prompts
// Prompts include: files to check, patterns to find, risks to identify

// 3. Claude analyzes codebase using the prompts
// Finds: existing payment tables, similar schemas
// Risks: None (new table)

// 4. Save analysis results
save_task_analysis({
  taskId: "task-1-id",
  filesToCreate: ["migrations/002_checkout.sql"],
  dependencies: [{type: "file", name: "001_orders.sql", action: "uses"}],
  risks: []
})

// 5. Get enriched context
get_execution_prompt("task-1-id")
// → Returns: related code, patterns, guidelines

// 6. Implement!
// Claude writes migration, runs tests

// 7. Record learning
add_feedback({
  pattern: "e-commerce checkout schema",
  type: "success",
  feedback: "Stripe integration smooth"
})

Key improvement: Step 1 now auto-prepares analysis, reducing manual workflow steps!

PM sees:

✅ Task 1 → Done (real-time update)
🟡 Task 2 → In Progress (Claude working)
⏳ Tasks 3-6 → Blocked (waiting for dependencies)
📊 Progress: 17% (1/6 tasks done)

🧪 Pattern Learning in Action

Automatic Failure Detection (Saves Time!)

// Scenario: Regex parsing keeps failing

// Attempt 1
add_feedback({
  pattern: "regex pattern matching",
  type: "failure",
  feedback: "Unescaped metacharacters broke parser"
})

// Attempt 2
add_feedback({
  pattern: "regex pattern matching",
  type: "failure",
  feedback: "Special chars not sanitized"
})

// Attempt 3
add_feedback({
  pattern: "regex pattern matching",
  type: "success",
  feedback: "Finally worked after sanitizing"
})

// Now Orchestro knows...
detect_failure_patterns()
// 🚨 Returns:
// {
//   pattern: "regex pattern matching",
//   failure_rate: 66.67%,
//   risk_level: "medium",
//   recommendation: "⚡ Review sanitization first!"
// }

// Next time, before using regex:
check_pattern_risk("regex pattern matching")
// ⚠️ Warning: "67% failure rate (2/3).
//    Common issue: Unescaped metacharacters.
//    Mitigation: Use sanitization helper first."

Result: Future regex tasks complete faster with fewer errors!
