Project: Orchestration Engine
Vision
A minimalist, offline-first, CLI-first orchestration engine inspired by HashiCorp Nomad, prioritizing stability, security, and simplicity over feature richness.
Objective
Build a lightweight system to manage and execute workloads across a set of nodes, keeping complexity far below that of Kubernetes.
Requirements
- CLI First: Primary interaction through a CLI tool.
- Offline First: Functional without constant internet connectivity.
- AI First: Designed to be easily discoverable and manageable by AI agents.
- Stability & Security: Prioritize security fixes and bug fixes over new features.
- Language: Written in Go 1.25+.
- Simplicity: Minimalist implementation, avoiding the "K8s complexity trap".
Constraints
- No web UI as a primary requirement.
- Must not implement K8s-level complexity.
- Feature development must move slowly to ensure stability.
Out of Scope
- Full-blown Kubernetes-compatible API.
- Complex cloud-provider integrations.
- GUI-based management consoles.
