Ultracode Through Open Dynamic Workflows

This is the Codex-facing ultracode alias for Open Dynamic Workflows. It uses the same local ODW daemon, MCP tools, and native fallback as the odw skill, but gives users the expected ultracode entrypoint.

Step 0: Check the daemon

Run:

node scripts/daemon-bridge.js --check

• Exit 0: use the daemon path.
• Exit 1: say exactly what is missing (odw-daemon start or odw-daemon doctor codex) and use Codex-native planning only if useful.

Daemon Path

1. Plan with node scripts/daemon-bridge.js plan "<task>".
2. If the task is expensive or mutation-risky, show the topology, agent count, estimated cost/time, and ask before execution.
3. Execute with node scripts/daemon-bridge.js exec plan.json.
4. Monitor with node scripts/daemon-bridge.js status <workflowId> and finish with node scripts/daemon-bridge.js result <workflowId>.
5. If MCP tools are available, prefer odw_health, odw_plan, odw_run, odw_status, odw_result, and odw_list over shell bridge calls.

Native Fallback

If ODW is unavailable, be explicit that full ultracode power requires the daemon, then decompose into discovery -> parallel work -> adversarial verification -> synthesis using Codex-native capabilities.

Never include secrets in prompts, plans, logs, or workflow artifacts.
