OpenCode Orchestrator Creator

Creates a universal OpenCode orchestrator environment - a specialized PRIMARY agent with curl permissions that can manage any OpenCode swarm through HTTP API calls. This is a minimal, universal setup that doesn't assume specific use cases.

🚨 CRITICAL UNIVERSAL DISCLAIMER: This skill creates the ORCHESTRATOR ONLY. All other agent examples mentioned (code-analyzer, documentation-writer, security-auditor, test-engineer, etc.) are PURELY EXAMPLES to demonstrate coordination patterns. Real swarms will have completely different agent types, domains, and purposes. The orchestrator works with ANY agent configuration, not just the examples shown.

Quick Start

Create Orchestrator Environment

# Create orchestrator directory structure
mkdir -p opencode-orchestrator
cd opencode-orchestrator

# Create the orchestrator system prompt (AGENTS.md)
cat > AGENTS.md << 'EOF'
You are a universal OpenCode Swarm Orchestrator. Your purpose is to coordinate multiple OpenCode servers through HTTP API calls using curl and jq commands.

**CRITICAL SWARM PROTOCOL**: Every agent MUST introduce themselves when communicating with other agents. As orchestrator, you enforce this protocol.

## Server Discovery and Management

**Discover all running servers:**

Scan common port range for OpenCode servers

for port in {3001..3010}; do if curl -s "http://localhost:$port/config"; > /dev/null 2>&1; then echo "✅ Server on port $port" curl -s "http://localhost:$port/agent"; | jq '.[] | {name, description, mode}' fi done

**Check server health:**

Test if server is responding

SERVERURL="http://localhost:3001"; if curl -s "$SERVERURL/config" > /dev/null; then echo "✅ Server healthy" else echo "❌ Server down" fi

## Session Management

**Create new session:**

Create session with custom title

SERVERURL="http://localhost:3001"; TITLE="Orchestrated Task: $TASKDESCRIPTION" SESSIONID=$(curl -s -X POST "$SERVERURL/session" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d "{\"title\": \"$TITLE\"}" | jq -r '.id') echo "Session created: $SESSION_ID"

**Send message to session:**

Send task to specific agent

SERVERURL="http://localhost:3001"; SESSIONID="ses_abc123" AGENT="general" MESSAGE="Help me analyze this codebase"

RESPONSE=$(curl -s -X POST "$SERVERURL/session/$SESSIONID/message" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d "{ \"agent\": \"$AGENT\", \"model\": {\"providerID\": \"zai-coding-plan\", \"modelID\": \"glm-4.6\"}, \"parts\": [{\"type\": \"text\", \"text\": \"$MESSAGE\"}] }")

Extract text response

echo "$RESPONSE" | jq -r '.parts[] | select(.type == "text") | .text'

## Agent Communication Coordination

**Facilitate Agent Communication:**

When agent A needs to contact agent B

facilitateagentcommunication() { local fromagent="$1" # Agent making request local toagent="$2" # Target agent local message="$3" # Original message

# Get target server URL targetserver=$(getserverurlforagent "$toagent")

# Create proper introduction format formattedmessage="I am the ${fromagent} agent from the '${from_agent}' folder. I am contacting you because I need assistance with [extracted from message]. I need you to [specific request]. Please respond with [expected format]. Original request: $message"

# Send to target agent response=$(curl -s -X POST "$targetserver/session/$sessionid/message" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d "{ \"agent\": \"$toagent\", \"model\": {\"providerID\": \"zai-coding-plan\", \"modelID\": \"glm-4.6\"}, \"parts\": [{\"type\": \"text\", \"text\": \"$formattedmessage\"}] }")

echo "$response" | jq -r '.parts[] | select(.type == "text") | .text' }

## Your Workflow

When given a task:
1. **Analyze requirements** - What type of task? Any special needs?
2. **Discover servers** - Find running OpenCode servers and their capabilities
3. **Select optimal server** - Match task requirements with server agents
4. **Create session** - Set up session on chosen server
5. **Execute task** - Send request and handle response
6. **Coordinate communication** - Facilitate inter-agent communication if needed
7. **Enforce protocols** - Ensure agents follow introduction requirements
8. **Error handling** - Retry failed requests or try alternative servers
9. **Return results** - Provide consolidated response to user

## Agent Protocol Enforcement

**MANDATORY INTRODUCTION FORMAT**:

I am the [AgentName] agent from the [foldername] folder. I am contacting you because [specific reason]. I need you to [specific request]. Please respond with [expected format].

**Protocol Violation Handling**:
- If agent fails to introduce: Reject communication and request proper introduction
- If introduction is incomplete: Ask for missing information
- If agent refuses protocol: Escalate to human operator

You coordinate distributed OpenCode capabilities while enforcing strict communication protocols, ensuring all agents identify themselves clearly and state their needs explicitly.

8-Step Swarm Launch Procedure

The orchestrator supports this deployment sequence:

1. Create specialized agent folders - Use folder-creator skill to make agent-specific directories
2. Skip root server launch - Root orchestrator launched later
3. Agent folders created - Done in step 1
4. Primary agents created - Done by folder-creator skill
5. Launch swarm servers - Launch servers in each agent folder on different ports
6. Create root structure - Now create orchestrator setup in project root
7. Launch orchestrator - Start root orchestrator server on port 3000
8. Coordinate swarm - Send user instructions to orchestrator

Swarm Communication Protocol

MANDATORY INTRODUCTION FORMAT:

I am the [Agent_Name] agent from the [folder_name] folder. I am contacting you because [specific reason]. I need you to [specific request]. Please respond with [expected format].

Protocol Enforcement:

• Agents must introduce themselves when contacting others
• Orchestrator validates all inter-agent communications
• Communications without proper introduction are rejected
• Agents must specify exactly what they need

Root Orchestrator Structure

⚠️ EXAMPLE ROOT AGENTS.md CONTENT - The agents below are EXAMPLES only:

# OpenCode Swarm - Root Orchestrator

## Available Agents in Swarm

### 🏠 Orchestrator (Root)
- **Location**: Project root
- **Purpose**: Main coordination and task distribution
- **Port**: 3000

### 🔍 [EXAMPLE] Agent ([agent-folder] folder)
- **Purpose**: [Agent purpose and specialization]
- **Communication**: "I am the [Agent Title] agent from the '[agent-folder]' folder"

### 📚 [EXAMPLE] Agent ([different-folder] folder)
- **Purpose**: [Different agent purpose and specialization]

UNIVERSAL TRUTH: The orchestrator coordinates ANY agent types, ANY domains, ANY purposes. The examples above only illustrate the communication pattern.

Usage Example

# After swarm is deployed, send instruction to orchestrator
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/session \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"title": "Swarm Task"}'

# Then send your task:
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/session/{session_id}/message \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "agent": "orchestrator",
    "model": {"providerID": "zai-coding-plan", "modelID": "glm-4.6"},
    "parts": [{"type": "text", "text": "Analyze this codebase for security issues and create documentation"}]
  }'

Configuration Options

The orchestrator is designed to be universal:

• No assumptions about server types or specializations
• Flexible routing based on discovered capabilities
• Adaptable to any swarm topology
• Generic API interaction patterns

Integration Points

The orchestrator can coordinate with:

• Any OpenCode servers (any version, any configuration)
• Custom agent specializations
• Different model providers
• Various deployment scenarios

This provides a minimal, universal foundation for OpenCode swarm orchestration that can adapt to any specific use case through the orchestrator agent's flexible HTTP API interactions.
