ORCH — orchestrate AI SDK agents as a managed team with state machine + CLI

[oxgeneral]

Hi Vercel AI SDK community!

I built ORCH — a CLI runtime that manages AI agents (built with the AI SDK or any adapter) as a structured engineering team.

Why this matters for AI SDK users:
If you are building agents with the Vercel AI SDK and want to run multiple agents in parallel with proper task management, ORCH provides the orchestration layer.

Key features:

• State machine: todo -> in_progress -> review -> done
• Mandatory review step (no task closes without human or agent review)
• Auto-retry on failure
• Inter-agent messaging and task hand-off
• Goal system: decompose high-level goals into parallel tasks
• Teams API for grouping agents by specialization
• TUI dashboard for live monitoring

npm install -g @oxgeneral/orch
orch init
orch agent add "AI Worker" --adapter claude
orch task add "Analyze user feedback" -p 1
orch tui

TypeScript strict, 1493 tests, MIT license. Would love to explore integration with the AI SDK tool-calling interface!
