What is Bernstein orchestrator?

Open-source Python tool for coordinating CLI coding agents. Uses git worktrees for isolation, bandit for model routing, zero LLM scheduling tokens.

How do you install Bernstein?

pip install bernstein-ai. Init with bernstein init in your repo. Points to .sdd/ for state.

Does Bernstein work with non-Anthropic models?

Yes—any CLI agent. Routes via bandit: haiku, sonnet, opus, or add arms for GPTs, Gemini.

40% Token Waste: Why I Ditched LLM Schedulers for Deterministic Code

Picture this: three AI coding agents clashing over auth.py, overwriting changes, breaking tests. One dev's fix? Bernstein, a non-LLM orchestrator that turns chaos into parallel precision.

⚡ Key Takeaways

Replace LLM scheduling with deterministic Python to save 40% tokens and eliminate hallucinations. 𝕏
Git worktrees enable true agent parallelism without conflicts or shared state chaos. 𝕏
Contextual bandit auto-selects optimal models per task, cutting costs 23% via learning. 𝕏
