How I Work

Connected systems.

We help CTOs and engineering leaders orchestrate the tools their teams already rely on, add control layers around AI execution, and keep cross-system work reliable in production. Start with Workflow Infrastructure. Add the Reliability and Control Layer when failure cost rises. Escalate to Enterprise Extension for high-stakes operations.

Governed Execution

Where the Control Layer fits

Workflow Infrastructure creates the route. The Control Layer decides whether the route can run fast, needs review, or should stop.

Safe actions run fast. Risky actions route to approval. Disallowed actions stop with a reason.

From wedge to governed execution

Start with one workflow. Add the Control Layer when failures become expensive. Escalate to Enterprise Extension when governance and orchestration requirements widen.

Entry wedge

MCP-only

Use this when discovery or compliance means the client team will operate the agent.

  • Connectivity validation
  • Scoped host setup
  • Read-only or constrained rollout
Branded layer

Control Layer

The governed middle that makes Skills + MCP safe to run in production.

  • Approval and block boundaries
  • Reason-coded access and blocked states
  • Evals, release gates, and incident loops
High-stakes scale

Enterprise Extension

Apply when cross-system orchestration, auditability, and deterministic recovery all matter at once.

  • Custom trust boundaries
  • Cross-system orchestration
  • Deterministic retries and auditability

Discovery can start with MCP-only, but the Control Layer is where execution becomes a managed product instead of a loose integration.

Operating Artifacts

What ships with every governed engagement

The Control Layer is not a promise in a sales call. It is a set of artifacts your team can inspect, run, and inherit.

Connectivity

mcp_contract.yaml

Tools, resources, auth scope, and transport boundaries.

Behavior

agent_contract.yaml

Allowed actions, approvals, escalation triggers, and operating limits.

Outcome

outcome_contract.md

Success metrics, manual fallback, and ownership boundaries.

Operations

runbook.md

Recovery steps, operator lanes, and rollback expectations.

Proof

golden-task checks

Regression evidence that keeps releases tied to real workflow behavior.

What a Month Looks Like

Phase 1

Workflow Infrastructure

Implement the highest-value cross-system workflows with clear trust boundaries and production behavior.

Phase 2

Reliability and Control

.agency adds eval coverage, release checks, policy envelopes, and incident loops as automation scope, business criticality, and risk increase.

Phase 3

Extension

For enterprise constraints, we extend beyond Notion-native automations with custom MCP/orchestration and governance controls.

Questions

What is your primary service?

Workflow Infrastructure for production business workflows. Reliability and Control Layer and Enterprise Extension are added as workflow complexity and operational risk increase.

Do you build full business systems and run onboarding?

When system development and team onboarding are the primary need, I provide a direct referral path to Half Dozen.

What does .agency own?

.agency owns workflow infrastructure design, reliability controls, trust boundaries, and enterprise extension architecture.

When should we add the Reliability and Control Layer?

Add it when failures become expensive, workflows become autonomous, or multiple systems must stay in sync. It is the reliability gate before scale.

When do we need Enterprise Extension?

Use Enterprise Extension for regulated, high-volume, or cross-system operations requiring deterministic retries, auditability, and custom trust boundaries.

Do you still offer MCP-only?

Yes. MCP-only remains a scoped wedge for discovery and compliance-constrained rollouts, but default delivery moves to outcomes and operational reliability.

Do clients own the implementation?

Yes. Clients retain ownership of code, workflows, and operating documentation. We optimize for portability and long-term control.

Why the phrase Skills + MCP?

Client-facing delivery is Skills + MCP. Technical proof uses MCP + Skills: MCP handles trust and connectivity while Skills carry behavior and workflow intent.
