Phase 3c implementation - Notification System: ### New kugetsu commands: - `kugetsu notify list` - Show unread notifications from PM Agent - `kugetsu notify clear` - Mark notifications as read ### Notification system: - PM Agent writes task events to ~/.kugetsu/notifications.json - Events: task_complete, task_blocked, task_assigned - Supports issue_ref and gitea_url for linking - Hermes/Chat Agent reads notifications on user messages ### kugetsu-pm v2.0: - Updated documentation with notification behavior - PM Agent monitors Gitea for task completion - Two review modes: PM reviews immediately OR asks dev if ready - Notification triggers documented ### File renamed: - phase3a-setup.md → kugetsu-chat-setup.md (more descriptive) ### Hermes gateway analysis: - Gateway is a client (connects to Telegram), not a server - Cannot push messages directly to Telegram from external process - Notifications stored locally for Hermes to pick up on next user message
Kugetsu
Name background: Kugetsu (月掴, "grasping the moon") is derived from Jujutsu Kaisen's "Tokusa no Kage Boujutsu" (Shadow Art Style) — a technique that summons up to ten different creatures from the user's shadow. This project embodies the concept of one orchestrator managing multiple specialized agents working in parallel.
Overview
Kugetsu is an agent orchestration system that enables parallel task execution across multiple repositories. Inspired by the IT department metaphor:
- Human acts as executive, reviewing and approving
- PM (Project Manager) Agent coordinates and delegates tasks
- Coding Agents execute tasks autonomously on assigned issues
The core idea: instead of working through issues one-by-one, a PM spawns multiple coding agents in parallel — similar to Hermes running multiple tasks, but scaled to a full team workflow.
Why
When you have 10 issues, typically you work through them sequentially. With Kugetsu:
- PM prioritizes and splits tasks
- Coding agents work in parallel on their own branches
- PM reviews and merges to a release branch
- Human provides final approval to master/main
This means your focus shifts from doing to overseeing — reviewing PRs, not writing code.
Status
Phase 1: Research & PoC
