Batuta Orchestrator

In active development

Batuta is visible only in dev builds. It is evolving quickly — expect rough edges and frequent changes.

Batuta is an orchestrator for external agent CLIs. Instead of switching between terminals and tools, you coordinate third-party agents — claude, codex and others — from one place inside the app.

How it works

1. Detection — Batuta scans the connected server’s PATH for known third-party agent CLIs. The scan is read-only: no subprocess is spawned during detection.
2. Skill installation — for the agents you select, the app offers to install the batuta-cli skill, which lets those agents report progress back to Batuta.
3. Worker form — a worker configuration form whose combobox only enables agents that already have the skill installed, so you never dispatch work to an unwired agent.

Why orchestrate external agents

• Different agents have different strengths — combine them on the same task pipeline.
• Progress reporting flows back to a single dashboard instead of scattered terminals.
• Corporate teams can standardize which external CLIs are used and how they report.
