Orchestrated Development Controller

Purpose

The central orchestrator that automatically chains skills based on the type of work being performed. This skill is always active and determines which other skills to invoke and in what order.

When to Use

• Always active by default in this workspace
• Applies to:

- New project creation - Project migration - Feature development - Refactoring - Bug fixes - Pre-release validation

Human Interaction Rules

Humans are only involved if:

Default to autonomous execution.

Overrides

The orchestrator can be overridden by:

1. User explicit instruction — "Skip spec validation"
2. Workspace configuration — Disable specific skills
3. Emergency mode — Direct path to hotfix

All overrides are logged and auditable.

Constraints

• Never skip security or compliance skills
• Never proceed without spec on HIGH-risk changes
• Always produce audit trail
• Respect decision freezes

The orchestrator serves the spec, not convenience.
