OpenAI orchestrator + Claude agents + signal-based workflow = zero coordination overhead
OpenAI-powered orchestrator monitors PRPs every 30 seconds, makes autonomous decisions, spawns Claude agents in isolated Terminal windows.
Structured markdown documents combining PRD + LLM prompt engineering. 44-signal taxonomy tracks state transitions ([Dd] → [Ip] → [PR] → [VV]).
TDD mandatory. Tests before implementation (Red-Green-Refactor). Coverage >80% enforced. No shortcuts.
Automatic GitHub Actions workflow with Claude Code reviews every PR. Orchestrator forms task lists from review comments. Agent fixes ALL issues.
Each PRP gets isolated worktree + branch. Work on multiple PRPs simultaneously. No context switching.
40+ signals (Priority 1-10) communicate state, progress, blockers, emotions. Orchestrator reacts autonomously to signal changes.
Write structured Product Requirement Prompts with clear goals and DoD checklists
OpenAI-powered orchestrator scans PRPs every 30 seconds and prioritizes work
Claude agents work in isolated Terminal windows using TDD methodology
Claude Code reviews PRs, agents fix ALL review comments automatically
Orchestrator merges when CI passes and validates post-release deployment
PRP archived when 100% DoD complete. Move to next priority task.
