Platform

One delivery protocol around many agent workers.

Orcho is the stable layer around agent work: typed plans, phase gates, review loops, handoff decisions, evidence and run history. Start here when you want the product model before going into docs.

01 Category thesis

Agent work needs a production harness.

AI agents can write, inspect and repair software. What teams still lack is a production harness and control plane for deciding what counts as delivered. Orcho names that missing layer: typed plans, review contracts, readiness gates, event timelines and evidence bundles that survive the worker session.

02 Profile semantics

Not every task deserves the same workflow depth.

Orcho separates two decisions that agent tools often blur together. A work-kind profile says what the task is — small_task, feature, complex_feature, planning, review, research or migration. An operating mode says how much verification and evidence the run should require — fast, pro or an explicit governed override.

03 Anti-lock-in

Your agents will change. Your delivery protocol should not.

Orcho ships runtimes for Claude Code, Codex, Gemini and Claude-compatible wrappers, with a registry for plugin runtimes. Workers remain replaceable participants under one delivery record, so changing a worker does not erase plan history, gates or evidence.

04 Runtime economics

Top-model intelligence belongs where it matters most.

AI coding spend grows when every phase uses the same expensive worker. Orcho makes runtime choice explicit: plan with strong reasoning, route bounded implementation and repair through cost-efficient compatible workers, keep review independent, and inspect the result by phase.

05 Governance

Review should control the run.

Orcho puts gates and human handoff inside the delivery flow. A rejection requests retry feedback, routes to repair or halts the run — and the decision itself becomes part of the run history.
