What is Ordewell?

Ordewell is an open-source command-line tool for orchestrating AI coding agents such as Claude Code and Codex. You give it one goal and it breaks it into an ordered plan of tasks, each with its own runner, model and mode, then runs the tasks and checks the results. It is written in TypeScript and released under the Apache 2.0 licence.

Pros

  • Plans, runs and verifies multi-step agent work
  • Mix different agents and models per task
  • Free and open source (Apache 2.0)

Cons

  • Needs your own coding agent accounts
  • Young project, still growing

Who should use Ordewell

Developers who already use AI coding agents and want them to work through larger goals step by step.

Who may not need it

People who only use AI chat for occasional coding help.
