Monitor: one item per thread, with an AI plan

Passwords: logins the agents use without seeing

One app for the whole working day. The AI prepares, the engineer decides.

Orchestrator is a Windows desktop app where an engineer plans the day, triages every incoming chat and email with an AI agent, and approves each action, without switching between apps. It is in daily use at a telecom software company, and colleagues install it too.

Its agent, Mercurius, runs on the Claude Code CLI. Every tool it can use has a green, yellow or red safety tier, and a message may prepare an action but can never approve a risky one.

What’s inside

Daily Composer
The day plan from open tasks, timers that survive a restart, and the end-of-day report.
Monitor
Chats, email, Telegram and WhatsApp as one item per thread, triaged by a cheap model.
Mercurius
Plans, read-only investigations, reply drafts, and lessons learned from corrections.
Passwords
An encrypted vault in its own process; agents use logins only after an approval.
Browser extension
An in-page login menu and Ask Mercurius about any page.
Claude Code MCP
Saved logins and the full agent for the engineer's own Claude Code sessions.
Signed updates
Over-the-air updates from a signed feed; Update now restarts in about 7 seconds.
