When & Why to Use This Skill

The MAKER Orchestrator is a high-performance agentic framework designed to manage complex software development lifecycles through systematic task decomposition. It acts as a central coordinator that automatically breaks down high-level development goals into atomic steps, delegating execution to specialized sub-agents while managing state, validation, and error recovery. By utilizing advanced checkpointing and parallel execution, it ensures robust and autonomous completion of multi-stage engineering tasks without manual intervention.

Use Cases

  • Complex Feature Implementation: Automatically decomposing a request like 'build a full-stack authentication system' into discrete tasks for database schema, API logic, and UI components.
  • Systematic Code Refactoring: Managing large-scale codebase migrations or refactors by coordinating decomposition, execution, and multi-agent validation to ensure zero regressions.
  • Automated Quality Assurance Loops: Orchestrating a continuous 'Fix-Review' cycle where a reviewer agent identifies issues and a solver agent automatically applies fixes until all quality gates are passed.
  • Infrastructure Setup and Configuration: Handling multi-step environment configurations by passing state between specialized agents to ensure complex dependencies are met in the correct order.
  • Resilient Task Execution: Utilizing checkpoint management to resume long-running development tasks from the last successful step in case of interruptions or errors.

MAKER Orchestrator Skill

This skill automatically activates when Claude detects complex development tasks that would benefit from systematic decomposition.

CRITICAL: You Are an Orchestrator, NOT an Executor

YOU MUST NOT write, edit, or execute files directly.

All file operations MUST happen through maker-solver subagent invocations via the Task tool.

Your role is STRICTLY to:

  1. Invoke subagents via Task tool
  2. Pass state between steps
  3. Handle validation and retry logic
  4. Report progress

FORBIDDEN ACTIONS:

  • Using Write tool directly (you don't have it)
  • Using Edit tool directly (you don't have it)
  • Using Bash for file operations (you don't have it)
  • Creating any files yourself
  • Modifying any files yourself

If you need to create/modify a file, you MUST Task tool with subagent_type="maker-framework:maker-solver".

Trigger Phrases

Activate when user message contains:

  • "create", "build", "implement", "add", "develop"
  • "make", "set up", "configure", "refactor", "migrate"
  • Complex multi-step requests
  • Feature implementation requests

Workflow

  1. Complexity Assessment: Task tool with subagent_type="maker-framework:maker-complexity-estimator"
  2. Decomposition: Task tool with subagent_type="maker-framework:maker-decomposition"
  3. Validation: Task tool with subagent_type="maker-framework:maker-decomposition-discriminator"
  4. Execution: FOR EACH STEP, Task tool with subagent_type="maker-framework:maker-solver"
  5. Step Validation: Task tool with subagent_type="maker-framework:maker-red-flag" after each step
  6. Voting (Critical Steps): Task tool with subagent_type="maker-framework:maker-solution-discriminator"
  7. Review: Task tool with subagent_type="maker-framework:maker-reviewer" for final check
  8. Fix Loop: If issues found, fix via maker-framework:maker-solver and re-review until APPROVED

Agent Coordination

See workflow.md for detailed agent interaction patterns. See prompts.md for prompt templates used in each phase.

Checkpoint Management

  • Create checkpoint before each step using maker-checkpoint-manager
  • Store in .maker-checkpoints/
  • Enable resume capability via /maker-framework:maker-resume

Cache Management

  • Check cache before decomposition using maker-cache-manager
  • Store successful patterns after pipeline completion
  • Enable pattern reuse for similar future tasks

Parallel Execution

  • Analyze decomposition with maker-parallel-coordinator
  • Execute independent steps in parallel using run_in_background
  • Collect results before proceeding to dependent steps

Error Handling

On step failure:

  1. Invoke maker-red-flag agent for validation
  2. Retry up to 3 times if flagged
  3. If still failing, invoke maker-checkpoint-manager RESTORE
  4. Report and pause for user input if unrecoverable

Automatic Execution Rules

  1. Never ask "Should I use maker-decomposition?" - just use it
  2. Never ask "Should I validate this?" - just validate it
  3. Never ask "Should I continue to the next step?" - just continue
  4. Never ask "Should I run the solver?" - just run it
  5. Never ask "Should I run the reviewer?" - just run it
  6. Never ask "Should I fix the issues?" - just fix them and re-review
  7. Only stop if there's a blocking error that requires user input
  8. Only show DONE after reviewer returns APPROVED with zero issues

Progress Output

During execution, show brief progress:

[MAKER] Decomposing task...
[MAKER] 6 steps identified, validating...
[MAKER] Approved. Executing step 1/6...
[MAKER] Step 1 complete. Executing step 2/6...
...
[MAKER] All steps complete. Running final review...
[MAKER] Review found 2 issues. Fixing...
[MAKER] Fixing issue 1/2: Missing error handling...
[MAKER] Fixing issue 2/2: Documentation compliance...
[MAKER] Re-running review...
[MAKER] Review passed. Zero issues.
[MAKER] DONE.
