OrchardOS

Agentic project and task management plugin for OpenClaw. Persistent SQLite-backed task board with a queue runner that auto-dispatches ready tasks as subagents, REST API, native agent tools, and a web dashboard.

OrchardOS is an OpenClaw plugin that gives your agents a persistent task board. Create projects, add tasks, and let the built-in queue runner dispatch them as subagents automatically.

Install

bash

openclaw plugins install clawhub:openclaw-orchard
openclaw gateway restart

Configure (optional)

Orchard works after install with the plugin entry enabled. If you want to tune models, limits, database path, or queue cadence, configure the orchard plugin entry in openclaw.json.

Common options:

• dbPath
• roles.executor.model
• roles.architect.enabled
• limits.maxConcurrentExecutors
• queueIntervalMs

Agent tools

Available in every agent session after install:

Tool	Description
orchard_project_create	Create a new project
orchard_project_list	List all projects
orchard_task_add	Add a task to a project
orchard_task_list	List tasks (filter by project, status)
orchard_task_done	Mark a task done with a summary
orchard_task_block	Mark a task blocked with a reason
orchard_task_comment	Add a comment to a task
orchard_wake	Trigger the queue runner immediately

REST API

Main gateway API routes use the normal OpenClaw bearer-token auth model.

Method	Path	Description
GET/POST	/orchard/projects	List / create projects
GET/POST	/orchard/projects/:id/tasks	List / add tasks
GET/PUT	/orchard/tasks/:id	Get / update task
POST	/orchard/tasks/:id/comments	Add comment
GET	/orchard/tasks/:id/runs	Run history
POST	/orchard/wake	Trigger queue runner
GET	/orchard/ui	Web dashboard

How it works

1. Create a project with a goal
2. Add tasks (ready status) via tools, API, or dashboard
3. Queue runner polls every 5 minutes (configurable), dispatches ready tasks as subagents
4. Executors use orchard_task_done / orchard_task_block to report back
5. Architect wakes when queue is empty to generate new tasks toward the project goal
