README
🏰 BARON
Local-first AI coding agent orchestrator.
   
BARON turns your backlog into a fleet of AI coding agents. You describe the work as **beads** — small, well-scoped tasks — and BARON dispatches each one to a coding agent CLI (Claude Code, Codex, opencode, Gemini, agy, Cline, …) running in its own isolated git worktree and tmux window. Nothing lands on your base branch until it clears your project's own build/lint/test pipeline, passes a secret scan, and — if you enable it — a reviewer persona signs off. Everything happens on your machine, in your terminal, against your own git history: there's no server, no cloud dashboard, no daemon.
*BARON doesn't write code itself. It's the manager: it hands out the work, watches the agents, enforces your gate, and decides what's safe to merge.*
