Orchestrate Projects by Jean
Act as the portfolio manager for coding agents already running in Jean. Keep every project tied to its product purpose, unblock it in place, and drive it to verified code, CI, deploy, and repository closure.
Requirements
Codex desktop on macOS, an already-running Jean app with [mcp_servers.jean] configured, Python 3.9 or newer, and either mcp2cli in PATH or mcp2cli available in the existing offline uvx cache. The observer fails closed when these trust requirements are not met; it never starts Jean or installs dependencies during supervision.
Cardinal invariant
Never quit, relaunch, kill, or restart Jean to recover an agent or UI failure. Preserve the running app, open projects, sessions, and worktrees. Recover the affected session in place by inspecting it, cancelling only its current turn when necessary, switching its available backend/model in place, and sending an exact-state continuation prompt.
Do not rationalize a restart as the fastest fix. A transient stream failure, token limit, quota error, frozen command, stale accessibility tree, or missing response is a session problem until proven otherwise—not an app-process problem.
