🐙 Claude Octopus

Every AI model has blind spots. Claude Octopus puts up to eight of them on every task, so blind spots surface before you ship — not after. It orchestrates Codex, Gemini, Copilot, Qwen, Ollama, Perplexity, and OpenRouter alongside Claude Code, with consensus gates that flag any disagreements.

🐙 Research, build, review, and ship — with eight AI providers checking each other's work. Say what you need, and the right workflow runs. A 75% consensus gate catches disagreements before they reach production. No single model's blind spots slip through.

🧠 Remembers across sessions. Integrates with claude-mem for persistent memory — past decisions, research, and context survive session boundaries.

⚡ Spec in, software out. Dark Factory mode takes a spec and autonomously runs the full pipeline — research, define, develop, deliver. You review the output, not every step.

🔄 Four-phase methodology, not just tools. Every task moves through Discover → Define → Develop → Deliver, with quality gates between phases. Other orchestrators give you infrastructure. Octopus gives you the workflows.

🐙 32 specialized personas (role-specific AI agents like security-auditor, backend-architect), 48 commands (slash commands you type), 51 skills (reusable workflow modules). Say "audit my API" and the right expert activates. Don't know the command? The smart router figures it out.

🐙 Works with just Claude. Scales to eight. Zero providers needed to start. Add them one at a time — each activates automatically when detected.

💰 Five providers cost nothing extra. Codex and Gemini use OAuth (included with subscriptions). Qwen has 1,000-2,000 free requests/day. Copilot uses your GitHub subscription. Ollama runs locally for free.

Quickstart

# Terminal (not inside a Claude Code session):
claude plugin marketplace add https://github.com/nyldn/claude-octopus.git
claude plugin install octo@nyldn-plugins

# Then inside Claude Code:
/octo:setup

That's it. Setup detects installed providers, shows what's missing, and walks you through configuration. You need zero external providers to start — Claude is built in.

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/nyldn/claude-octopus.git ~/.codex/claude-octopus && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && ln -sf ~/.codex/claude-octopus/skills ~/.agents/skills/claude-octopus
