About

What it does

codeplaneapp-smithers brings Smithers, an orchestration layer for advanced AI agents in React, into Claude Code as a plugin aimed at builders who outgrow one-shot prompts. The stack emphasizes durable workflows: phases and steps, automatic retries, SQLite-backed persistence, and observability so you can see where a run stalled. Solo founders shipping agent-native SaaS or internal copilots use it while composing the React frontend and wiring Claude as the reasoning engine, then carry the same patterns into launch checks and production monitoring. It is multi-phase because orchestration spans building the agent surface, hardening launches, and watching live runs—not a one-off integration. Canonical placement remains Build → Agent tooling as the shelf where orchestration libraries first land in the journey.

Highlights

  • Smithers orchestrator for advanced AI agents built in React
  • Durable workflows with phases, steps, retries, and SQLite-backed state
  • Observability-oriented design for long-running Claude-driven tasks
  • Keywords emphasize smithersorchestrator, workflows, and write paths for agent automation
  • Single-plugin bundle from codeplaneapp/smithers focused on orchestration

Why builders use it

React agent UIs without a durable orchestrator lose state on retries and hide failures across multi-step Claude workflows.

After install, you can define phased Smithers workflows with persisted SQLite state and observability suited to production agent apps.
