code_work_spawner

Repository issue thread assistant with an Agent Orchestrator style YAML config.

It consumes issue tracker events for configured GitHub, GitLab, Gitea, or OpenProject
projects, reads issue threads, and uses CLI responders such as codex, opencode, or
copilot-cli to decide when to reply. It supports
multi-repo config, responder fallback chains, and optional Discord webhook and
desktop notifications. Repository access is configured separately through each
project's scm block so tracker and checkout handling can evolve
independently.

Highlights

• Consume GitHub, GitLab, Gitea, and OpenProject issue events across multiple projects
• Trigger replies from mentions or meaningful thread updates
• Run planning and bug-verification flows in isolated worktrees
• Send optional Discord or desktop notifications for assistant events

Requirements

• Dart SDK
• gh, glab, tea, and/or OpenProject API credentials authenticated for the target projects
• Local checkouts for configured repositories
• Optional local responder CLIs such as codex, opencode, or copilot-cli

Config

Create a local agent-orchestrator.yaml and use
examples/README.md plus
examples/simple-github.yaml,
examples/simple-gitlab.yaml, or
examples/simple-gitea.yaml as the reference.

Environment placeholders such as ${CWS_DISCORD_WEBHOOK} are resolved from the
process environment and from a .env file placed next to the selected config
file. Logging also supports CWS_LOG_LEVEL (or LOG_LEVEL) with values such
as trace, debug, info, warning, error, or fatal. See
.env.example for a minimal starter file.

Generate a starter config:

dart run bin/code_work_spawner.dart init-config
# Write it to a file:
dart run bin/code_work_spawner.dart init-config --output agent-orchestrator.yaml
# Overwrite an existing file:
dart run bin/code_work_spawner.dart init-config --output agent-orchestrator.yaml --force

Run

dart run build_runner build --delete-conflicting-outputs

Single event-source reconciliation cycle:

dart run bin/code_work_spawner.dart --once

Long-running tracker runtime:

dart run bin/code_work_spawner.dart

Override tracker CLI paths when needed:

dart run bin/code_work_spawner.dart \
  --config /path/to/agent-orchestrator.yaml \
  --db /path/to/state.sqlite3 \
  --gh-command /usr/bin/gh \
  --glab-command /usr/bin/glab \
  --tea-command /usr/bin/tea

Testing

dart run tool/validate_gherkin_test_format.dart
dart analyze
dart test
