      <description>&lt;p&gt;Like many in the tech industry recently, I was hit with a tough mandate from management: shrink the development team, but somehow maintain (or increase) our output.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Instead of just accepting that we were going to be overworked and burnt out, I decided to build a system that could act as a force multiplier for the developers I had left. I needed something more than just a standard coding copilot—I needed a system that could orchestrate specialized, concurrent AI workers.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Fvsj0c64a0b3je95n3lxb.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Fvsj0c64a0b3je95n3lxb.png" alt="“Infinite Software Factory” and “Orchestrator” concept" width="800" height="533"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;So, I built ISF-Core (Infinite Software Factory). And today, I'm sharing it for free under the MIT license. You may doubt on it capabilities, but I have successfully using it to build itself up.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It run on docker container with AI Proxy Virtual Keys &amp;amp; Token Spend Tracking and I can assign individual virtual developer keys to my team members, track token consumption (per developer; per project; per model) in real-time, and export granular billing reports — all without touching the frontend.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Fork the Repositories:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The Core Engine: Dive into the full documentation and source code at the main repository: &lt;a href="https://github.com/agentic-river/isf-core" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;agentic-river/isf-core&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Quick Start Template: If you just want to deploy a new project instantly, use the dedicated template repository: &lt;a href="https://github.com/agentic-river/isf-new-project" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;agentic-river/isf-new-project&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
