The system

One orchestrator. Every life-science domain.

Claude composes specialized reasoning plugins with a biomedical knowledge graph, a claim extraction layer, and a hash-verified MCP data plane — all human-gated 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.

See it in action

Real output. Not a mockup.

Every CRISPRos run produces traceable artifacts with full provenance. Here's what a guide design workflow actually looks like.

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, adversarial review, and human approval.

Built on the Claude Code and Agent SDK foundation. Runs against Sonnet 4.6 and Opus 4.6 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

    An EngineRouting contract selects the right mix of co-writer, co-scientist, sophia, 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. Swiss Cheese adversarial review follows — Opus plus Sonnet.

Domain Operating Systems

28 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.
