## Evidence notes (from repository text)
- README summary paragraph: > *"To achieve great things, two things are needed: a plan and not quite enough time."* — Leonard Bernstein
- ### orchestrate any AI coding agent. any model. one command.
- https://github.com/sipyourdrink-ltd/bernstein/actions/workflows/ci.yml/badge.svg](https://github.com/sipyourdrink-ltd/bernstein/actions/workflows/ci.yml)
- - **43 CLI agent adapters** ship in v1.10.1 — 40 third-party wrappers, 2 leaf-node delegators, plus a generic `--prompt` wrapper. Source of truth: the [supported agents](#supported-agents) table below.
- i wrote bernstein because i was paying $400/month in claude bills running three coding agents in parallel and getting nondeterministic merges.
- - engineering teams running ≥3 cli coding agents in parallel — each agent gets its own git worktree, the merge queue serialises landings, no race conditions
## Installation hints found in README
- `pip install bernstein # pip`
- `pip install 'bernstein[openai]'` |`
- `pip install aider-chat` |`
- `pip install aider-chat`, then set `CLM_ENDPOINT` / `CLM_TOKEN` |`
## worker.md contract (derived starter)
Purpose: Expose repository-supported tool/server capabilities behind a bounded worker interface.
### Input schema
```json
{
"type": "object",
"additionalProperties": false,
"required": [
"request_id",
"operation",
"payload"
],
"properties": {
"request_id": {
"type": "string"
},
"operation": {
"type": "string"
},
"payload": {
"type": "object"
}
}
}
```
### Output schema
```json
{
"type": "object",
"additionalProperties": false,
"required": [
"request_id",
"status",
"result"
],
"properties": {
"request_id": {
"type": "string"
},
"status": {
"type": "string",
"enum": [
"ok",
"retryable_error",
"invalid_request",
"invalid_output"
]
},
"result": {
"type": "object"
}
}
}
```
### Constraints
- timeout_seconds: 30
- max_attempts: 2
- idempotency_key: request_id
- status_enum: [ok, retryable_error, invalid_request, invalid_output]
- notes: adapt to concrete APIs/classes documented in this repository before production use
## How this should be used
1. Treat this file as a repo-derived starter profile, not a claim of an official repository API contract.
2. Replace schemas with exact interfaces from code/docs you adopt.
3. Keep execution bounded and auditable using worker protocol constraints.
How to use#
- Save this as a worker spec file (for example:
bernstein-my-task.worker.md). - Replace the input/output schemas and purpose with your real bounded task.
- Enforce schema validation + timeout + retry policy in your runtime before production use.
