# Oh-My-OpenCode Orchestration Guide
This document provides a comprehensive guide to the orchestration system that implements Oh-My-OpenCode's core philosophy: **"Separation of Planning and Execution"**.
## 1. Overview
Traditional AI agents often mix planning and execution, leading to context pollution, goal drift, and AI slop (low-quality code).
Oh-My-OpenCode solves this by clearly separating two roles:
1. **Prometheus (Planner)**: A pure strategist who never writes code. Establishes perfect plans through interviews and analysis.
2. **Sisyphus (Executor)**: An orchestrator who executes plans. Delegates work to specialized agents and never stops until completion.

## 3. Key Components
### 🔮 Prometheus (The Planner)
- **Model**: `anthropic/claude-opus-4-5`
- **Role**: Strategic planning, requirements interviews, work plan creation
- **Constraint**: **READ-ONLY**. Can only create/modify markdown files within `.sisyphus/` directory.
- **Characteristic**: Never writes code directly, focuses solely on "how to do it".
### 🦉 Metis (The Consultant)
- **Role**: Pre-analysis and gap detection
- **Function**: Identifies hidden user intent, prevents AI over-engineering, eliminates ambiguity.
- **Workflow**: Metis consultation is mandatory before plan creation.
### ⚖️ Momus (The Reviewer)
- **Role**: High-precision plan validation (High Accuracy Mode)
- **Function**: Rejects and demands revisions until the plan is perfect.
- **Trigger**: Activated when user requests "high accuracy".
### 🪨 Sisyphus (The Orchestrator)
- **Model**: `anthropic/claude-opus-4-5` (Extended Thinking 32k)
- **Role**: Execution and delegation
- **Characteristic**: Doesn't do everything directly, actively delegates to specialized agents (Frontend, Librarian, etc.).

## 4. Workflow
### Phase 1: Interview and Planning (Interview Mode)
Prometheus starts in **interview mode** by default. Instead of immediately creating a plan, it collects sufficient context.
1. **Intent Identification**: Classifies whether the user's request is Refactoring or New Feature.
2. **Context Collection**: Investigates codebase and external documentation through `explore` and `librarian` agents.
3. **Draft Creation**: Continuously records discussion content in `.sisyphus/drafts/`.
### Phase 2: Plan Generation
When the user requests "Make it a plan", plan generation begins.
1. **Metis Consultation**: Confirms any missed requirements or risk factors.
2. **Plan Creation**: Writes a single plan in `.sisyphus/plans/{name}.md` file.
3. **Handoff**: Once plan creation is complete, guides user to use `/start-work` command.
### Phase 3: Execution
When the user enters `/start-work`, the execution phase begins.
1. **State Management**: Creates `boulder.json` file to track current plan and session ID.
2. **Task Execution**: Sisyphus reads the plan and processes TODOs one by one.
3. **Delegation**: UI work is delegated to Frontend agent, complex logic to Oracle.
4. **Continuity**: Even if the session is interrupted, work continues in the next session through `boulder.json`.

## 5. Commands and Usage
### `/plan [request]`
Invokes Prometheus to start a planning session.
- Example: `/plan "I want to refactor the authentication system to NextAuth"`
### `/start-work`
Executes the generated plan.
- Function: Finds plan in `.sisyphus/plans/` and enters execution mode.
- If there's interrupted work, automatically resumes from where it left off.

## 6. Configuration Guide
You can control related features in `oh-my-opencode.json`.
```jsonc
{
"sisyphus_agent": {
"disabled": false, // Enable Sisyphus orchestration (default: false)
"planner_enabled": true, // Enable Prometheus (default: true)
"replace_plan": true // Replace default plan agent with Prometheus (default: true)
},
// Hook settings (add to disable)
"disabled_hooks": [
// "start-work", // Disable execution trigger
// "prometheus-md-only" // Remove Prometheus write restrictions (not recommended)
]
}
```
## 7. Best Practices
1. **Don't Rush**: Invest sufficient time in the interview with Prometheus. The more perfect the plan, the faster the execution.
2. **Single Plan Principle**: No matter how large the task, contain all TODOs in one plan file (`.md`). This prevents context fragmentation.
3. **Active Delegation**: During execution, delegate to specialized agents via `sisyphus_task` rather than modifying code directly.
