What rug-agentic-workflow does

The plugin coordinates software delivery using three distinct roles. At the center is rug-orchestrator, which splits requests into individual steps and assigns them to subagents. It reviews the results and repeats the cycle until the entire task is complete.

Implementation work goes to swe-subagent. This subagent builds features, fixes bugs, refactors code, and runs tests. Quality checks belong to qa-subagent, which creates test plans, hunts for edge cases, and verifies implementation quality.

Because rug-orchestrator delegates every task, it does not write code directly. You will need Copilot CLI to install and run the plugin.

What it helps with

  • break down complex development tasks using an orchestrator
  • hand off feature development and refactoring to an engineering agent
  • build test plans and catch edge-case bugs with a dedicated QA agent
  • verify code implementation before final delivery

Example prompts for the agent

  • Use rug-orchestrator to plan and execute the new export feature
  • Have swe-subagent refactor the database connector and write tests
  • Ask qa-subagent to look for edge cases in the user signup logic
