dely

An automation-first delivery protocol for coding agents, packaged for Claude Code, Codex CLI, Grok Build, Antigravity CLI, Kiro CLI, Cursor Agent CLI, and GitHub Copilot CLI: it takes a request that may still be vague, brings it to an approved design contract, then automates sequential implementation, independent review, and pull-request preparation.

Quickstart

Four steps, and nothing more:

1. Install dely in the harness.
2. Open a session in the project.
3. Invoke dely:setup (optional).
4. Ask for a change normally.

You need one of Claude Code, Codex CLI, Grok Build, Antigravity CLI, Cursor Agent CLI, or GitHub Copilot CLI, each with plugin support, or Kiro CLI with the npx skills installer; Orca as the required, constant execution plane that launches and supervises the per-phase worker TUIs; and Git plus a GitHub remote for the project you run Dely against. dely:delivery preflights Orca and stops when the CLI is missing, the runtime cannot start, or a required capability is absent.

Preflight Orca before installing a harness plugin. Orca's orchestration feature must be enabled:

orca open           # launches Orca and waits for the runtime to be reachable
orca status --json   # confirms the runtime is reachable
orca orchestration run-list --json  # confirms orchestration is enabled

Per-harness install commands live under Install. Project pins live under Project setup.

How Dely works

Dely is a thin control protocol, not an orchestrator, an SDLC framework, or a second source of Git state. The current interactive session is Control. Control owns the approval boundary, task boundaries, exception handling, dispatch supervision, and release. It never implements or reviews the candidate itself: those r
