# .overstory/ This directory is managed by [overstory](https://github.com/jayminwest/overstory) — a multi-agent orchestration system for Claude Code. Overstory turns a single Claude Code session into a multi-agent team by spawning worker agents in git worktrees via tmux, coordinating them through a custom SQLite mail system, and merging their work back with tiered conflict resolution. ## Key Commands - `ov init` — Initialize this directory - `ov status` — Show active agents and state - `ov sling ` — Spawn a worker agent - `ov mail check` — Check agent messages - `ov merge` — Merge agent work back - `ov dashboard` — Live TUI monitoring - `ov doctor` — Run health checks ## Structure - `config.yaml` — Project configuration - `agent-manifest.json` — Agent registry - `hooks.json` — Claude Code hooks config - `agent-defs/` — Agent definition files (.md) - `specs/` — Task specifications - `agents/` — Per-agent state and identity - `worktrees/` — Git worktrees (gitignored) - `logs/` — Agent logs (gitignored)
