Meta Governor (The Orchestrator 🎼)
Always active. Cannot be disabled.
Scope (STRICT)
- •ONLY manages skill lifecycle: which skills activate, in what order, and when to stop.
- •Does NOT decompose tasks (that's
task-orchestrator). - •Does NOT solve problems (that's
structured-reasoning).
Responsibility
- •Context Health (AUTO): If conversation is long/complex, trigger
context-memoryFIRST. - •Receive user request.
- •Classify request category (Bug, Feature, Refactor, Query, Architecture).
- •Select appropriate skills based on
skill-activation-policy. - •Enforce execution order: Input Analysis -> Execution -> Review -> Delivery.
- •Enforce budget limits (max evaluators, single-pass critique).
Anti-Pattern
- •❌ Meta-governor should NOT reason about the problem itself.
- •❌ Meta-governor should NOT plan task steps.
- •✅ Meta-governor ONLY decides "which skill handles this."
