9 workflows

A workflow is a named pipeline of steps with preconditions, iteration limits, and gates. Templates live in src/workflows/templates/ and are dispatched by src/dispatch.ts.

Workflow	What it does	When to use
counsel	Single specialist Q&A	Quick legal questions
review	Specialist → evaluator gate → plain-language → verification → final gate	Contract reviews, compliance checks
adversarial	Builder + attacker + synthesizer	Stress-test a clause, position, or argument
roundtable	Parallel expert panel → debate → synthesis	Cross-disciplinary opinions on one matter
legal-design	Document transformation with meaning preservation	Plain-language redesign, accessibility passes
full-bench	Maximum team engagement, all phases	High-stakes matters, M&A, regulated industries
pre-engagement	Intake + team selection	Briefing analysis before kickoff
verification	Standalone 10-pass verification	Audit an existing deliverable
tabulate	Tabular multi-document review, every cell cited	Compare a clause across N contracts

Shape of a template

export const reviewTemplate: WorkflowTemplate = {
  id: 'review',
  name: 'Review',
  steps: [
    'intake',
    'specialist_analysis',
    'evaluator_gate',
    'plain_language_review',
    'verification_pass',
    'final_gate',
    'delivered',
  ],
  stepDefinitions: {
    specialist_analysis: {
      preconditions: ['intake'],
      maxIterations: 2,
      qualityCheckType: 'self',
    },
    evaluator_gate: {
      preconditions: ['specialist_analysis'],
      requiresEvaluatorGate: true,
      maxRevisionLoops: 2,
    },
    /* ... */
  },
};

How steps are wired

• Preconditions — a step cannot start until its dependencies are delivered.
• maxIterations — how many times the orchestrator may re-run a step before failing.
• requiresEvaluatorGate — invokes the evaluator MCP tool with revision loop.
• final_gate — human approval before delivery.

The executor (src/workflows/executor.ts) walks the template generically; the per-workflow orchestrator prompt provides judgement on how to traverse it (e.g. when to revise vs. escalate).
