The operating problem

Where the process breaks.

Onboarding spans HR, identity, equipment, policy, and manager tasks that move through separate queues. Missing ownership or premature access creates a poor first day and unnecessary security exposure.

Governed execution

How the work runs.

Order remains explicit from trigger to decision. Every step runs inside the tools, data scope, and policy assigned to this workflow.

  1. 01Trigger

    Start state is approved

    The HR record supplies the person, role, manager, location, and start date.

  2. 02Agent

    Role plan is assembled

    The agent maps the approved role profile to tasks, accounts, documents, and due dates.

  3. 03Agent

    Requests are prepared

    The workflow drafts account, equipment, policy, and orientation actions for each owner.

  4. 04Human

    Sensitive access is reviewed

    HR or the hiring manager approves sensitive access and resolves policy or role exceptions as the terminal step.

Decision boundary

Human approval is the boundary.

The approval node is terminal today. A post-approval send or write happens only through a separate manual or newly triggered continuation.

Required decision

HR or the hiring manager approves sensitive access and exceptions; dispatching requests requires a separate manual or newly triggered continuation.

Approval recorded

Actor, decision, edits, and timestamp join the receipt.

Separate continuation

External write

Nothing resumes silently after the human decision.

Proof of execution

Execution receipt.

The output is not just a result. It carries the trigger, evidence, proposed actions, decision, and final workflow state.

Policy before autonomy

Guardrails for this run.

  • Role templates define the maximum access the workflow can request.

  • Sensitive or exceptional access requires named human approval and a separate continuation.

  • Credentials remain encrypted and are never included in model context.

  • Every task and acknowledgement is scoped to the worker’s organization.
