Conductor is designed for local-first execution. There is no cloud control plane requirement and no database dependency by default.

​
What local-first means here

  • config in flat files
  • tasks in markdown
  • work isolated in git worktrees
  • sessions run under tmux
  • secrets stay in your own environment

​
Operational restart pattern

If the dashboard looks stale after config or project changes, restart it with the workspace you actually want to serve.

​
Why teams choose this model

This setup is a good fit when you want orchestration without handing task state, secrets, or code-adjacent metadata to a hosted SaaS product.
