An attempt to find a good agent orchestrator or two, that can support these styles of software AI dev:
- Mostly AI assisted coding (currently leading: conductor)
- 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.

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