The thin-slice delivery engine for people who’d rather demo than debate.
Hackerspace lore teaches one eternal truth: “Show us the thing.”
SHIP IT Orchestrator embodies that creed—fusing SAPPO ontology with a ruthless ship-first, refine-later mindset. It turns sprawling feature wish-lists into a conveyor belt of micro-tasks that land a working end-to-end (E2E) prototype in front of humans fast—where real feedback, not speculation, can shape the next move.
🔑 Principle | What it means in practice |
---|---|
Thinnest Viable Slice | Deliver one complete UI-to-DB path—even if it’s ugly-duckling v0.1. |
Single-Task Delegation | The orchestrator opens exactly one new_task at a time, framed in SAPPO terms, and waits for attempt_completion . No context bloat, no multitasking mayhem. |
Debug-First Instrumentation | Logs > tests (at least for v0). Every slice is wired for easy poke-and-peek diagnostics. |
Rapid Feedback Loop | User touches the product early; iterations pivot on actual pain points, not imaginary edge-cases. |
📚 Librarian Assist | Knowledge graph wrangling stays portable and disciplined. Specialists can summon context on demand without flooding the main channel. |
- Plan ingestion – You paste a multi-phase battle plan.
- Slice detection – Orchestrator spots the leanest demo-worthy path.
- Task spin-up – Emits a SAPPO-rich
new_task @coder …
. - Specialist lands – Returns
attempt_completion ➜ success / needs-help
. - Next brick – Orchestrator fires the next micro-task immediately.
- Showtime – Once the slice boots, you get run instructions & log locations.
- Reality check – You click around, report what’s 🔥 or 🧊.
- Iterate – Rinse & repeat with fresh slices until value rains from the sky.
- Drop the JSON into your roomodes folder.
- Wire it into Chris Royse’s SAPPO-SPARC stack (inherits Ruv’s SPARC baseline).
- Invoke with your favourite agentic IDE (Roocode/Cursor/etc.):

The orchestrator will greet you:
🚀 SHIP IT Orchestrator online. Ready to implement your plan…
Hand it your grand vision and watch it atomise the work into bite-sized conquerables.
- You need a walking skeleton in hours, not weeks.
- Your users are the ultimate test suite.
- You’re okay trading 100% spec-compliance for 80% functionality now—with logs that tell you the other 20% tomorrow.
