Orchestrated Execution

Overview

Execute work units through the Metaswarm 4-phase cycle. Quality gates are blocking state transitions. Adversarial reviews use fresh reviewers with binary PASS/FAIL verdicts.

When to Use

  • Implementing work units from an approved plan
  • Executing tasks requiring rigorous quality enforcement
  • When TDD compliance must be verified independently

Process

  1. IMPLEMENT - Coder executes via TDD against spec with DoD items
  2. VALIDATE - Orchestrator independently runs tsc, eslint, vitest (never trusts subagent)
  3. ADVERSARIAL REVIEW - Fresh reviewer checks spec compliance: binary PASS/FAIL with evidence
  4. COMMIT - Only after adversarial PASS, within declared file scope

Anti-Patterns (Enforced)

  • Self-certifying (trusting subagent "tests passed" claims)
  • Combining phases into single steps
  • Reusing reviewers after FAIL
  • Passing previous review findings to new reviewers
  • Treating quality gate failures as advisory

Agents Used

  • agents/coder/ - TDD implementation
  • agents/code-reviewer/ - Fresh adversarial review
  • agents/issue-orchestrator/ - Independent validation

Overview

Orchestrated Execution drives work units through the Metaswarm 4-phase cycle: Implement, Validate, Adversarial Review, and Commit. It enforces independent quality gates and uses fresh reviewers to deliver binary PASS/FAIL verdicts.

How This Skill Works

Coders implement against the spec using TDD and DoD items. The Orchestrator then runs independent validations (tsc, eslint, vitest) without trusting subagents. A fresh adversarial reviewer assesses compliance and returns a binary PASS/FAIL with evidence; commit occurs only after a PASS within the declared file scope.

When to Use It

  • Implementing work units from an approved plan
  • Executing tasks requiring rigorous quality enforcement
  • When TDD compliance must be verified independently
  • Handling changes that require independent validation before merge
  • Reworking components with enforced gate transitions

Quick Start

  1. Step 1: Implement via TDD against the spec and DoD items.
  2. Step 2: Run the independent validations (tsc, eslint, vitest) with the orchestrator.
  3. Step 3: Have a fresh adversarial reviewer assess with a binary PASS/FAIL and evidence; if PASS, commit within the declared file scope.

Best Practices

  • Enforce independent quality gates between phases to block state transitions
  • Use fresh adversarial reviewers for the review phase
  • Never trust subagent test results; rely on independent validation
  • Keep phases explicit and non-overlapping; avoid combining steps
  • Commit only after adversarial PASS within declared file scope

Example Use Cases

  • A developer implements a new feature with TDD, then runs the Metaswarm Validate phase (tsc, eslint, vitest) before an adversarial reviewer confirms compliance and the code is committed.
  • A bugfix is delivered through metaswarm with isolated scope, fresh reviewer, binary verdict, and then commit.
  • Refactoring a module is performed with independent validation and adversarial review to ensure no behavioral changes.
  • Onboarding a new project, features are added via metaswarm to enforce strict quality gates before merge.
  • Cross-team changes are coordinated by the issue orchestrator to ensure gates pass before merge.
