📋 To Activate on a New Project RIGHT NOW

Option A: You Already Have Orchestro Installed

Your installation: /Users/pelleri/Documents/mcp-coder-expert

Steps:

Make sure it's configured:

cd /Users/pelleri/Documents/mcp-coder-expert
npm run configure-claude

Restart Claude Code (Cmd+Q, then reopen)
Open your new project in Claude Code

Start using it:

Create a task to implement [your feature]

Optional - Start dashboard:

cd /Users/pelleri/Documents/mcp-coder-expert
npm run dashboard
# Browser opens automatically to http://localhost:3000

That's it! Orchestro works across ALL projects once installed.

Option B: Installing Fresh on Another Machine

npx @orchestro/init
# Answer 3 prompts
# Restart Claude Code
# Done!

🚀 How It Works Across Projects

Orchestro is an MCP server that runs independently of any specific project:

┌─────────────────────────────────┐
│  Orchestro MCP Server           │
│  /Users/pelleri/.../orchestro   │
│  ↓                               │
│  Claude Code (global)           │
│  ↓                               │
│  ANY project you open           │
└─────────────────────────────────┘

Key Points:

✅ Install once, use everywhere
✅ All tasks stored in Supabase (shared database)
✅ Dashboard shows tasks from ALL projects
✅ No per-project configuration needed

🔧 What Needs to Be Updated Before Publishing NPX

1. Update GitHub URLs

In packages/init/package.json (lines 12-13):

{
  "repository": {
    "url": "https://github.com/khaoss85/mcp-orchestro.git"  // ✅ Already correct!
  }
}

In packages/init/index.js (line ~107):

execSync(
  `git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/khaoss85/mcp-orchestro.git "${installDir}"`,
  { stdio: 'ignore' }
);

Status: ✅ Already updated with correct repo URL!

2. Publish to npm

cd packages/init

# Login to npm
npm login

# Publish (first time - requires --access public for scoped)
npm publish --access public

3. Update Main README with Published Command

Once published, update main README.md to use real npm command:

npx @orchestro/init  # Currently works with local package

📝 Practical Steps to Use NOW

Scenario: New Feature in Your Current Project

Open Claude Code (make sure Orchestro is loaded - you should see 27 tools)

In Claude Code, say:

Create a new task: "Implement dark mode toggle in settings"

Claude Code will:
- Create the task in Supabase
- Show you the task ID
- Dashboard updates automatically (if running)

Decompose a user story:

Decompose this: "User should be able to export data to CSV"

Prepare for implementation:
```
Prepare task [task-id] for execution
```

Get enriched context:

Get execution prompt for task [task-id]

Implement with full context! 🚀

🔍 Troubleshooting

"Orchestro tools not available in Claude Code"

# Re-configure
npm run configure-claude

# Restart Claude Code completely (Cmd+Q)

"Dashboard not auto-opening"

# Check if open package is installed
cd web-dashboard
npm install open

# Try manual open
open http://localhost:3000

"Database connection error"

# Check .env file
cat .env
# Should have DATABASE_URL

# Test connection
npm run migrate

"Port 3000 already in use"

Stop other services using port 3000
Or update web-dashboard/server.js line 10: const port = 5173;
