## Summary
|
|
|
|
Operator view of the reference orchestrator: `fleet.yaml` sessions/routes, `cap run` with static/llm/hybrid routing, `cap chat` interactive multi-agent talk, `cap manifest validate/resolve`, `cap list-drivers`, and the driver matrix (`claude`, `openclaude`, `codex`, `opencode`, `aider`, `a2a:<url>`, `acp:<cmd>`, `grpc:<addr>`, `pty:<cmd>`).
|
|
|
|
## Key findings
|
|
|
|
- Fleet patterns: pipeline, fan-out+join, parallel+human-collect, by-subtask split via a ` ```cap-subtasks ` fence convention (convention, not spec).
|
|
- Routing strategies: static (routes block verbatim), llm (model picks next session), hybrid.
|
|
- `cap manifest validate/resolve` confirms manifest tooling is expected orchestrator surface, not just internal plumbing.
|
|
- Worktree isolation path in practice: `.cap/<session>/`, cleaned up at fleet end (differs from the profile's `.cap-worktrees` suggestion).
|
|
- `--bypass` auto-approves all permissions at the fleet level.
|
|
|
|
## Pros / strengths
|
|
|
|
- Shows what "orchestrator" means operationally beyond the spec's MUSTs; directly reusable as tai's `cap` CLI command sketch.
|
|
- The `driver:` URI scheme (`a2a:`, `acp:`, `grpc:`, `pty:`) is a compact dispatch design tai can borrow.
|
|
|
|
## Cons / limitations / caveats
|
|
|
|
- Reference-implementation surface, not spec; fleet.yaml schema and fence conventions are rsclaw inventions.
|
|
- NoFleet error semantics or exit codes documented here.
|
|
|
|
## Relevance to tai
|
|
|
|
Shapes tai's orchestrator UX (manifest validate/resolve, driver URIs, chat/run split) and confirms worktree cleanup as expected behavior.
