AI Orchestrators Decision Table

An attempt to find a good agent orchestrator or two, that can support these styles of software AI dev:

1. Mostly AI assisted coding (currently leading: conductor)
2. Mostly vibe coding (currently exploring configuring pi from scratch)

Ideally one tool could be used for both.

Leave any suggestions in the comments please, all are welcome.

Legend

• Worktrees - Support for worktrees per task, with setup/teardown scripts
• Task overview - Ability to see all tasks from all projects in one place
• Line comments - Convenient UX for leaving code review line comments locally
• Github PRs - Convenient UX for creating and reviewing Github PRs
• Claude TOS - Ability to use Claude subscription while adhering to Anthropic TOS
• OpenCode - Ability to tap into existing opencode setup, run opencode models / agents / skills
• Multi-agent workflows - Automate multiple proprietary and open CLIs into workflows
• Multi-agent conversations - UI for talking to multiple agents at once
• Shared config - Ability to reuse agents and skills across different CLIs (e.g. Claude Code, Codex, opencode), when running them inside the orchestrator

Interesting. I do have support for custom AI commands, you define them from settings. They are slash commands, basically macros, supporting template variables and work across any provider, but it's not quite what you're asking for.

Updated the gist to:

1. Add JAT
2. Clarify "Shared config" item

Added pi-coding-agent. Unironically considering it as the base for setup. It's what powers openclaw in case anyone's wondering.
