Agency Orchestrator Integration

Agency Orchestrator is a YAML-based multi-agent workflow engine that runs as an MCP server. It enables DAG-based task orchestration where multiple Claude Code agents work in parallel with dependency management.

What This Enables

• Parallel agent execution — Run 3-8 agents simultaneously on independent tasks
• DAG dependencies — Define which tasks must complete before others start
• GitHub integration — Auto-create PRs, run checks, merge on success
• Built-in testing — Verify outputs at each stage before proceeding

Setup

Add to your .claude/settings.json under mcpServers:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "agency-orchestrator": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "agency-orchestrator", "mcp"],
      "description": "Multi-agent DAG workflow orchestration"
    }
  }
}

Available MCP Tools

Once connected, you get 6 tools:

• create_workflow — Define a new workflow from YAML
• run_workflow — Execute a workflow
• get_workflow_status — Check progress of running workflow
• list_workflows — List all defined workflows
• cancel_workflow — Stop a running workflow
• get_task_output — Get output from a specific task in a workflow

Usage with CC Commander Skills

Combine with CCC domains for powerful workflows:

1. Research Pipeline: ccc-research skills as parallel tasks → synthesis task
2. Code Review Pipeline: security-audit + code-review + type-check in parallel → merge gate
3. Deploy Pipeline: build → test (parallel: unit + e2e + security) → deploy → verify

Example Workflows

See workflows/ directory for ready-to-use YAML templates.

When to Use

• Tasks requiring 3+ parallel agents
• Multi-step pipelines with dependencies
• Automated review/deploy workflows
• Research that benefits from diverse agent perspectives
