THE SYSTEM
An evidence-first AI system for life sciences.
Claude composes five reasoning plugins with twenty-eight specialized DomainOS products over a hash-verified MCP data layer. Claims are grounded in artifacts. Artifacts carry provenance. Critical decisions route through human gates.
THE CO-WORK SYSTEM
How a request flows.
A request passes through seven stages — intent routing, plugin dispatch, parallel agents, evidence verification, human gates, adversarial review, canonical artifacts — with typed contracts at each boundary.
REQUEST FLOW
- 01
User intent
classify_intent() → 13 categories, confidence score
- 02
Engine dispatch
EngineRouting contract, HITL level, evidence mode
- 03
Parallel execution
DomainOS + MCP + KG (validated | exploratory | degraded)
- 04
HITL gates
Hypothesis, design, execution, publish checkpoints
- 05
Evidence Guardian
Grounding + provenance + contradiction detection
- 06
Swiss Cheese review
Adversarial A (Opus) + B (Sonnet) before merge
- 07
5 canonical artifacts
result, report, provenance, gate_status, session

THE REASONING LAYER
Five plugins Claude composes.
Each plugin is an evidence-first reasoning system with its own skills, agents, and MCP tools. Claude composes them together for any workflow — writing, hypothesizing, reasoning, tracking claims, connecting knowledge.
co-writer
34 skills · 5 agents
Compiles scientific writing
Compiles submission-grade papers, grants, biosketches, and CVs from structured intent and lab data. Every output compiled from artifacts, with claim-to-evidence tracking and venue formatting.
- — compile-manuscript
- — evidence-audit
- — scientific-writing
- — peer-review
- — compliance-lint
co-scientist
8 skills · 7 agents
Generates and critiques hypotheses
Hypothesis-driven research assistant. Generates, critiques, and evaluates hypotheses using the Swanson ABC model across a 6-phase pipeline — Scout → Generate → Critique → Scan → Plan → Review — with Elo tournament ranking.
- — hypothesis-generate
- — hypothesis-critique
- — analysis-plan
- — novelty-scan
- — gap-detect
sophia-claudette
7 skills · 9 agents
Audits scientific reasoning
Scientific reasoning plugin for Claude Code. Runs as automatic background observations and an explicit deep mode — uncertainty calibration, causal skepticism, drift auditing, epistemic diagnostics.
- — uncertainty-calibration
- — causal-skepticism
- — drift-audit
- — epistemic-math
- — decision-audit
paper-intelligence
12 skills · 3 agents · 5 MCP
Extracts and tracks claims
Extracts structured claims from scientific papers, builds evidence graphs, and queries claim relationships. Seven-stage ingestion: ingest → extract → normalize → dedup → link → tag → upsert. Provenance is never fabricated.
- — paper-ingest
- — claim-extract
- — claim-graph-query
- — contradiction-detection
- — claim-provenance
knowledge-graph
5 skills · 1 agents · 11 MCP
Unifies biomedical knowledge
Universal biomedical knowledge graph infrastructure. Neo4j graph + DuckDB columnar + SQLite FTS5 text search, Biolink Model schema, namespace-isolated across pi, t1d, gwas, crispr, tools, hyp, skill.
- — graph-query
- — graph-ingest
- — graph-search
- — graph-explore
- — graph-status
28 DOMAINOS PRODUCTS
One stack, every life-science domain.
Each DomainOS packages the workflows, evidence gates, and provenance requirements of its field, and composes the reasoning plugins for that domain's motions.
