Agent Orchestration — Agent orchestration is the coordination of multiple AI agents — assigning work, supplying context, sequencing steps, applying human checkpoints, and collecting results — so that agent output becomes governed, observable delivery instead of uncoordinated individual runs.
A single agent in an editor helps one developer. Agent orchestration operates at the organization level: a control plane decides what each agent should do, hands it the context it needs, gates its output, and records the result — turning many ad hoc agent sessions into one coordinated pipeline.
In software delivery, orchestration is what closes the gap between raw generation speed and safe, coordinated shipping. It's the difference between 'everyone runs their own agents' and 'the org runs agents.'
Skaftor orchestrates agents by compiling intent into work orders and dispatching them over a per-project MCP server, with gates and memory around every step.
An AI agent executes a task. Agent orchestration is the layer that coordinates many agents — assigning work, supplying context, sequencing, gating, and collecting results — so their combined output is governed and observable.
