Ordewell

Ordewell is an open source task orchestration tool for coding agents. A user describes a goal, Ordewell reads the repository, asks about anything left vague, and returns an ordered plan of tasks. Each task names its own runner (Claude Code, Codex or OpenCode), model and thinking effort, and the whole plan can be edited before any tokens are spent. It is built for developers who want to run several coding agents against one piece of work without losing control of the result. A read only planner explores the repo and cannot change it. Once the plan is approved, each task runs in a fresh agent session on its own git worktree and branch, with dependencies and prior task output passed along. Independent tasks run at the same time, and passing work is merged into an integration branch in plan order. A task counts as finished only when its agent reports completion through Ordewell's own tools, and nothing reaches the user's branch until the diff is read and merged. Version 0.9 adds planners that can look up issues and cloud state within rules the user sets. Ordewell is licensed under Apache 2.0, requires Node 20 or later, and runs on macOS, Linux and Windows. Planning works without an API key. The vendor states it is free with no paid tier.
