Agent Orchestrator Documentation
Agent Orchestrator (formerly Agents Orchestrator) is a multi-project AI agent orchestration dashboard built with Tauri 2.x, Svelte 5, and the Claude Agent SDK. It transforms a traditional terminal emulator into a mission control for running, monitoring, and coordinating multiple AI agent sessions across multiple codebases simultaneously.
The application has three major version milestones:
- v1 — A single-file Python GTK3+VTE terminal emulator with Claude Code session management. Production-stable, still shipped as
agor.
- v2 — A ground-up rewrite using Tauri 2.x (Rust backend) + Svelte 5 (frontend). Multi-pane terminal with structured agent sessions, subagent tree visualization, session persistence, multi-machine relay support, 17 themes, and comprehensive packaging.
- v3 (Mission Control) — A further redesign on top of v2's codebase. Replaces the free-form pane grid with a project-group dashboard. Adds multi-agent orchestration (4 management roles), inter-agent messaging (btmsg), task boards (bttask), session anchors, health monitoring, FTS5 search, plugin system, Landlock sandboxing, secrets management, and 704 automated tests.
Important: The docs/ directory is the single source of truth for this project. Before making changes, consult the docs. After making changes, update the docs.
