Worksona Knowledge Graph: How Agents Remember Across 254 Projects
A hybrid graph-and-vector retrieval platform that makes the entire Worksona portfolio queryable from a single chat interface. Graph traversal for relational questions, vector search for semantic ones.
AGENTS: The Workforce Behind Worksona
The core Worksona agent collection — structured personas with embedded reasoning frameworks, session memory, and exportable outputs. The workforce that everything else in the portfolio is built to route work toward.
Agent MCP: The Entire Worksona Workforce, Native to Claude Desktop
100+ Worksona agents across 19 professional categories, exposed as native MCP tools in Claude Desktop. Specialist reasoning on demand, without leaving the conversation.
Agent Registry: A Governed Index for Every Worksona Agent
A local-first, versioned catalog for every agent in the Worksona ecosystem. Searchable by capability, auditable by version history, deployable as live endpoints.
Delegator CLI: Running Multi-Agent Delegation from the Terminal
The Worksona delegation engine as a global npm command. One command kicks off a coordinated team of AI agents and writes the result to a file, the terminal, or a CI artifact.
Delegator MCP: Delegation as a Native Tool in Claude
The Worksona delegation engine exposed as MCP tools. Claude can now decompose complex tasks, dispatch to specialist agents, and return a synthesized report — without leaving the conversation.
The Delegator Evolution: Five Versions of a Multi-Agent Pattern
Five iterations of the same core idea — coordinator decomposes, workers execute, synthesis integrates. What changed across each version and why.
Worksona Delegator — Dynamic Teams from a Single Query
Worksona Delegator is the reference implementation of the delegation pattern: submit a query, and it automatically selects a coordination topology, assembles a specialist team, and synthesizes a unified deliverable — with streaming output and per-agent model selection throughout.
The Delegator — The Pattern at the Heart of Worksona
The delegator pattern replaces monolithic agents with a coordinator that decomposes work and routes each piece to a specialist — making intelligence a property of structure rather than a property of any single model.
What Is Worksona?
Worksona is a platform for structured intelligence — a set of principles, patterns, and governance mechanisms that make complex work correct, transparent, and composable, regardless of who or what is doing the work.
Worksona Toolkits: The Infrastructure Behind the Portfolio
