Quick Start

/plugin marketplace add yonatangross/orchestkit
/plugin install ork

Then start your personalized onboarding:

/ork:setup

The setup wizard scans your codebase, detects your tech stack, recommends skills for your needs, configures MCP servers, and creates a readiness score — all in one command.

---

Why OrchestKit?

Every Claude Code session starts from zero. You explain your stack, patterns, preferences—again and again.

OrchestKit gives Claude persistent knowledge of production patterns that work automatically:

| Without | With OrchestKit | |---------|-----------------| | "Use FastAPI with async SQLAlchemy 2.0..." | "Create an API endpoint" → Done right | | "Remember cursor pagination, not offset..." | Agents know your patterns | | "Don't commit to main branch..." | Hooks block bad commits | | "Run tests before committing..." | /ork:commit runs tests for you |

---

What You Get

One unified plugin, everything included.

| Component | Details | |-----------|---------| | 113 Skills | RAG patterns, FastAPI, React 19, testing, security, database design, ML integration — loaded on-demand, zero overhead | | 37 Agents | Specialized personas (backend-architect, frontend-dev, security-auditor) — route tasks to the right expert | | 212 Hooks | Pre-commit checks, git protection, quality gates, browser safety — ship with confidence |

All available in a single /plugin install ork. Skills load on-demand. Hooks work automatically.

Recommended MCP Servers

| Server | Purpose | Required? | |--------|---------|-----------| | Context7 | Up-to-date library docs | Recommended | | Memory | Knowledge graph persistence | Recommended | | Sequential Thinking | Structured reasoning for subagents | Optional | | Tavily | Web search and extraction | Optional |

The setup wizard (/ork:setup) will recommend MCPs based on your stack.

Customizing skills

Skills install as files on your disk, but don't hand-edit the installed copy — it gets overwritten on update and silently diverges from the canonical playbook. The supported ways to extend (user-level skills, project skills, upstream PRs, or disabling a bundled skill) are in [docs/extending-skills.md](docs/extending-skills.md).

---

Install

/plugin install ork

No tiering. No version confusion. Just one powerful plugin.

Not on Claude Code? Pull the skills into any agent (Cursor, Codex, OpenCode, …) via skills.sh:

npx skills add yonatangross/orchestkit

What's New

v8.16.0 — CC 2.1.149 → 2.1.161 adoption catch-up

• CC 2.1.160 + 2.1.161 adopted — shell/build-config write prompts, single-file grep satisfies read-before-edit, background-session SIGTERM-before-SIGKILL, dynamic-workflow trigger renamed workflow → ultracode, parallel-tool independent failure, claude mcp secret redaction, OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES metric labels, claude agents done/total, /mcp collapse-unused-connectors.
• CC 2.1.157 adopted — .claude/skills plugin auto-load (no marketplace), claude plugin init, EnterWorktree mid-session switching, worktrees unlocked on finish, claude agents --agent, backspace-dismiss workflow trigger.
• Skill tool-signature fixes — corrected SendMessage / PushNotification examples that had drifted from the live tool schemas across 5 skills, surfaced by a 61-skill adversarially-verified staleness audit.
• Version matrix now 472 entries; supported floor held at 2.1.148 (frozen until 2026-08-23).

v7.63.0 — CC 2.1.116 Adoption + gh rate-limit enforcement

• MIN_CC_VERSION bumped 2.1.113 → 2.1.116, 10 new matrix entries (333 total), including agent_hooks_main_thread (agent-scoped hooks fire in --agent main thread, not just subagent), sandbox_rm_dangerous_path_fix, reload_plugins_auto_deps, bash_gh_rate_limit_hint
• New PostToolUse hook gh-rate-limit-tracker — detects primary/secondary/HTTP-403+rate-phrase signals in gh stdout, injects additionalContext telling the model to stop the loop and wait for reset
• 5 new skill evals covering the 2.1.116 behavioral knowledge in github-operations, create-pr, review-pr, doctor, and agent-hook authoring
• Hook count 180 → 181; 14 agent hooks audited for main-thread firing safety (all defensive blockers — net positive)

v7.38.0 — CC 2.1.101 Full Adoption + Frontmatter Audit

• 26 skill frontmatter fixes — CC 2.1.101 enforces context:fork and agent: fields that were previously silently ignored; audited and corrected all 105 skills
• 18 new CC features tracked — 253 total in version matrix (deny-overrides-ask, dynamic MCP in subagents, worktree file access, focus mode, /team-onboarding)
• Wrong agent assignments fixed — performance→frontend-performance-engineer, devops→ci-cd-engineer
• agent: removed from commit/create-pr — prevents CC from delegating to agent instead of running skill workflow

v7.37.0 — CC 2.1.98 Full Adoption

• Monitor tool — real-time streaming from background builds/tests in implement, cover, verify, review-pr
• Partial result synthesis — crashed background agents report progress; 4 workflow skills salvage partial work instead of re-spawning
• Subprocess hardening — SCRIPT_CAPS=500 enforced, PID namespace sandbox, ENV_SCRUB active
• 17 new CC features tracked — 235 total in version matrix
• Anti-sycophancy protocol — bans performative agreement in review skills (from Superpowers analysis)
• Verification gate — cross-cutting 5-step evidence rule across 7 workflow skills
• Agent status protocol — DONE/DONEWITHCONCERNS/BLOCKED/NEEDS_CONTEXT across all 39 agents
• Pressure-test framework — RED-GREEN behavioral scenarios for 5 discipline skills

v7.36.0 — CORS Hardening + Release-Please Fix

• CORS restricted — Access-Control-Allow-Origin from * to same-origin on docs site
• Release-please drift fix — x-release-please-version marker eliminates build drift on release PRs

v7.33.0 — CC 2.1.97 Full Utilization

• 26 new CC features tracked — refreshInterval status line, workspace.git_worktree, TRACEPARENT OTEL, Stop/SubagentStop long-session fix, and 20 more

v7.30.0 — CC 2.1.94 Integration + Skill Hook Unlock

• 20 dead skill frontmatter hooks activated — CC 2.1.94 fixed silent ignore; context loaders now fire across 15 workflow skills
• Dynamic session titles — prompt bar shows {branch} · {effort} via hookSpecificOutput.sessionTitle
• Effort default aligned — high default matches CC 2.1.94+ for API-key/Bedrock/Vertex/Team/Enterprise users
• 105 skills, 39 agents, 1 hooks, 25 invocable commands

v7.27.0 — shadcn/ui v4 Style System + CC 2.1.90

• shadcn/ui v4 styles — 6 styles across 7 design skills
• CC 2.1.90 integration — format-on-save, offline resilience, /powerup onboarding
