The system

One orchestrator. Every life-science domain.

Claude composes specialized reasoning plugins with a biomedical knowledge graph, a claim extraction layer, and an MCP data plane — with human gates at every critical decision.

The approach

The compiler for biology.

Claude orchestrates the run — reading intent, proposing specs, composing specialized agents, drafting prose. The Evidence Guardian verifies every output against source artifacts, with human gates on every critical decision. The result is a reproducible manifest you can audit end-to-end.

A bench protocol that always runs the same way — your data in, validated figures out.

Built for trust

Human governance by default.

Agentic AI is powerful. Science demands accountability. Every Hordago product enforces human oversight at decision points.

Human approval gates

AI proposes. Scientists decide. Critical decisions route through explicit sign-off.

Full provenance

Inputs, commits, tool versions, environment, SHA-256 hashes — everything recorded in a reproducible manifest.

Grounded claims

Outputs are compiled from artifacts. Every sentence references a concrete figure, statistic, or citation.

What a run produces.

Every CRISPRos run produces traceable artifacts with full provenance. The panel below is a hand-written illustration of a guide design workflow, not a capture of one.

Claude orchestrates

Delegate the workflow. Keep command.

Claude reads a plain-language request, dispatches the right reasoning plugins, composes specialized agents, and routes data through the MCP layer — with human gates at every critical decision. You keep the final call on hypothesis, design, execution, and publish.

The request loop

Four stages from plain-language intent to a reproducible artifact — each gated by evidence contracts and human approval.

Built on the Claude Code and Agent SDK foundation. Runs against Claude with extended thinking, structured output, and parallel tool use.

  1. 01

    Intent classification

    Claude reads a plain-language request and routes it across the 13 Hordago task categories with a confidence score.

  2. 02

    Plugin dispatch

    A routing contract selects the right mix of co-writer, co-scientist, paper-intelligence, and knowledge-graph plugins for the job.

  3. 03

    Parallel agent execution

    Specialized agents run in parallel — each with its own skill set, evidence contract, and HITL checkpoint.

  4. 04

    Evidence Guardian review

    A grounding + provenance + contradiction sweep before results leave the orchestrator.

Domain Operating Systems

30 products. One stack.

Purpose-built operating systems for every life-science domain. Each packages its field's workflows, evidence gates, and provenance requirements, and composes the reasoning plugins that fit those motions.
