evo-agents

Shared tooling for agent harnesses: a cluster of repos plus the manifest, plans and documents that tell a coding agent how the cluster fits together.

The first piece is a multi-source knowledge graph. Connectors read git repos, the harness itself, wikis and project CLIs, speak one JSON Lines protocol (kg/1), and feed an append-only log per project. A deterministic pipeline turns that log into a SQLite graph that agents query over MCP. Every node and edge carries provenance and a sensitivity label, and a session only sees what its clearance allows.

Status: early prototype. Interfaces will change.

Install

uv tool install 'evo-ak[graphify]'   # or: pip install 'evo-ak[graphify]' (PyPI name; the command is evo-agents)
uv tool install 'evo-ak[graphify] @ git+https://github.com/maycuatroi1/evo-agents'   # unreleased main
uv tool install 'evo-ak[graphify] @ git+https://github.com/maycuatroi1/evo-agents@nightly'   # main as of last night, its ci green
# or, from a checkout: python -m pip install -e '.[test,graphify]'

The core needs Python 3.11+ and PyYAML; nothing else. The graphify extra adds graphify's tree-sitter extractors, which give code symbols for about 40 languages; without it only Python files get symbols, and kg build and kg status warn with the number of code files left without them. A source that sets code: {backend: graphify-ast} fails the build instead when the extra is missing.

macOS, Linux and Windows run every command but evo-agents worker, whose daemon needs process groups, tmux and launchd or systemd: it runs on macOS and Linux, and on Windows inside WSL. On Windows, kg schedule install prints the command to give Task Scheduler instead of loading a LaunchAgent, and a skill published from there marks a file executable when it starts with #!, since Windows keeps no execute bit.

Quick start

A harness opts in with a knowledge.yaml next to its harness.yaml:

version: 1
project: demo
policy:
  levels: [public, internal, customer, secret]
  sinks:
    - id: claude-code@anthropic
      kind: agent-session
      clearance: {level: internal}
sources:
  - id: harness            # plans, contracts, bindings, docs of the harness itself
    connector: harness
    label: {level: internal, integrity: U}
  - id: app                # a repo declared in harness.yaml
    connector: git
    repo: app
    refresh: 1h            # due for kg sync --due once an hour
    label: {level: internal, integrity: U}
  - id: wiki               # any command that speaks kg/1
    connector: exec
    command: [my-cli, kg-connector, wiki]
    credentials: [{key: my.wiki.token, env: WIKI_TOKEN}]
    label: {level: customer, integrity: U}
identifiers:
  - kind: UseCase
    pattern: '\bKB-\d{2}\b'

A git source reads the text of markdown, YAML, text, config and code files (or of what its include: globs match) and records other files by path only. It skips the paths its exclude: globs match, plus a default list: build output, lock files, virtualenvs and agent folders such as .claude/ and .agents/, at any depth, and state/ at the root only (a nested src/state/ is ordinary code). allow: takes globs that bring paths from that default list back, for example allow: [".claude/CLAUDE.md"], or "*/.claude/CLAUDE.md" for a nested one; exclude: still wins over allow:. Only the git connector reads allow:. fetch: true on a git source whose ref: is origin/<branch> fetches that branch from origin (with a timeout) before each run, so the graph follows the remote without anyone fetching the clone. A failed fetch keeps the run ok: it logs a warning and reads the ref as the clone has it. Without the key nothing is fetched. Without ref: a source reads HEAD of its checkout, whatever branch that has, and harness validate warns about it. A git source also reads the history of its ref, one Commit node per commit with changes edges to the files it changed, and, for a repo whose origin is on GitHub, the pull requests with their number, title, state, branches and merge commit, never their body or comments (pulls: false turns that off; the token comes from GH_TOKEN, GITHUB_TOKEN or gh auth token). A SHA or "PR #57" in a plan step's evidence then links the step to that commit or pull request, and through it to the files: docs/kg.md, section Plans of the hub, commits and pull requests. In a harness whose harness.yaml names a hub project, kg sync reads the plans at the revision the hub holds, with the hub's label, rather than the copies in plans/; a machine not signed in to a hub reads the copies. The graph says which commit each git source read and how many commits that is behind the remote's default branch (origin/<default_branch>, counted from the clone without fetching): kg status, kg_status, the SessionStart note and the hub's graph page show it, and kg_node links a file at that commit, so the lines of a span match what the link opens. Changing where a source reads from (a git source's ref:, repo: or path:, an exec source's command:) makes its next run replace what the source read before, even when the old ref has newer commits; within one ref, a file keeps the copy whose last commit is newest. Keys such as refresh:, label:, include: or fetch: do not count as a change of place. Before a file enters the corpus, the git connector replaces each secret in its text with a marker naming its kind: a private key in PEM ([redacted:pem]), a provider's key (Anthropic, OpenAI, AWS, Slack, Google, GitHub, hub tokens), the password of a URI, and the literal value of a variable or key named as a password, secret, token, API key or private key (DB_PASSWORD: [redacted:password]). References such as ${VAR}, os.environ[...] or process.env.X, empty values, placeholders and descriptive words stay, and so does the rest of the file, so its structure still enters the graph. The patterns favour precision over recall; evo_agents/kg/redact.py lists what they take and leave.

A markdown file whose frontmatter id: matches an identifier pattern is where that code is defined; a copy says derived_from: in its frontmatter, and kg status lists codes defined in more than one place.

Then, from the harness:

evo-agents harness validate          # schema and reference checks for every harness file
evo-agents kg sync --build           # run connectors, build the graph
evo-agents kg status                 # freshness, coverage and held deletions per source
evo-agents kg build --verify         # rebuild from scratch and compare hashes
evo-agents kg query kg_search "KB-01"
evo-agents kg query kg_impact --arg 'paths=["app:src/search.py"]'
evo-agents kg eval questions.jsonl   # Recall@k, MRR and tokens of kg_search, kg_context and grep (docs/kg-eval.md)

A harness's CI runs harness validate with the evo-agents of the tag nightly, the newest commit of main whose CI passed, which a workflow moves every night:

      - name: Install evo-agents
        run: python -m pip install "evo-ak @ git+https://github.com/maycuatroi1/evo-agents@nightly"
      - name: Validate manifest, contracts, knowledge and plans
        run: evo-agents harness validate .

A harness that must stay on one release pins it instead, python -m pip install "evo-ak==<version>": the pin is that harness's lock, and only an edit of the workflow moves it. The worker daemon follows the same tag unless its owner locks its version (docs/workers.md).

Corpus and graph live in ~/.evo/kg/<project>/ (override with EVO_KG_HOME), never in a repo. Every source sync and every build appends one line to audit.jsonl there: ids, times, counts and versions, never item content. A sync's line also counts the secrets the git connector redacted, by item id and kind, never their values. A build that finds nothing changed builds nothing and adds no line (see below).

A corpus synced before its git connector redacted keeps the old copies: in the blobs of earlier runs, in memo rows, and in free pages of the graph. evo-agents kg scrub (--all for every project directory of the kg home) reads them with the connector's patterns and lists each blob that holds a secret by hash, path, item id and kind of secret, never the value. A blob is old when nothing uses it, live when an item of the corpus refers to it now (a sync of its source replaces it with a redacted copy, so sync and build first), and kept when only records the corpus no longer holds name it, in the log of a run still in use (an item or a tombstone of that run still wins). Counting changes nothing. --purge says what it is about to delete and asks first (--yes when no terminal can answer). It then rewrites each run log in use that names a kept blob, keeping of its item and tombstone records only those the corpus holds (the log keeps its name and format, and replays to the same state), deletes the old and kept blobs, the run logs of old runs that name them and the memo rows holding a secret, compacts the memo and the graph so no free page keeps the text, and appends a scrub line with the counts to audit.jsonl. It never deletes what the corpus uses, and it holds every source's lock meanwhile, so a sync started then stops at once instead of writing. hub kg push never sends a run the hub already holds, so a rewritten log leaves the machine only for a run the hub lacks. In order:

evo-agents kg sync --build                   # live copies become old ones
evo-agents kg scrub                          # count, change nothing
evo-agents kg scrub --all --purge            # delete the old copies of every project, after a yes

To keep graphs fresh, give sources a refresh interval (30m, 6h, 1d). kg sync --due runs only the sources whose interval has passed since their last ok run; --all does that for every project that has synced on this machine. On macOS, kg schedule install loads a LaunchAgent that runs kg sync --due --all --build every hour (kg schedule print shows the plist, kg schedule uninstall removes it; output goes to ~/.evo/kg/schedule.log). On a machine signed in to a hub, the command also gets --push, which sends the runs the hub lacks (evo-agents hub kg push does the same by hand).

Syncs and builds do only what changed. A git source whose ref still resolves to the commit its last ok run read, with the same config and connector code, is not read again: the sync records the run, writes no run log and leaves the cursor, and --due --build builds only when a source read something. A harness source is always read, so files not yet committed in the harness still reach the graph. kg build skips a build whose corpus state, config, code and cursors are those of the latest build (--force builds anyway; the hub's worker skips the same way). A build that runs links again only the items whose text or structure changed or that looked up a name or path that now resolves elsewhere, and rewrites only the rows of the full-text index that changed. kg serve opens the store read-only.

Old data on the machine goes by retention periods (evo-agents kg prune): logs (default 1d) for run logs, blobs and rows of the runs table, history (1d) for the builds of the graph, and memo (14d) for memo rows after their last use. An old run log is deleted once no record of it is the one the corpus holds, and one still in use is rewritten without the records the corpus no longer holds, as kg scrub --purge does. A log the hub has not received is never touched: hub kg push records which runs the hub holds, and a run of a source above the hub sink never goes there. A blob goes once no log left and no item refers to it, the graph keeps its latest two builds and the builds of the period, and a memo row goes when neither the period nor the latest build used it. None of it changes what a build makes: kg build --verify --cold gives the same hash before and after. kg prune counts and changes nothing, --delete deletes after a yes (--yes when no terminal can answer), and --logs, --history and --memo set the periods of one pass. kg prune --schedule on counts, asks, and saves the periods in ~/.evo/kg/retention.json: from then on every kg sync --due --all, the LaunchAgent's command, prunes each project once a day and appends a prune line with the counts to its audit.jsonl. The schedule is off until the owner turns it on.

evo-agents kg prune --all                    # count, change nothing
evo-agents kg prune --all --delete           # delete what the periods make old, after a yes
evo-agents kg prune --schedule on            # count, ask, then prune with every scheduled sync

Using it from Claude Code

claude plugin marketplace add https://github.com/maycuatroi1/evo-agents
claude plugin install evo-kg@evo-agents

The plugin registers the MCP server evo-kg, a using-project-graph skill, and three hooks. The server binds to the project of the session directory; pass --project in .mcp.json to pin one, or run evo-agents kg bind --project NAME DIR once to tie a directory and everything below it to a project (kg bind --list and kg bind --remove DIR manage those bindings). When the machine is signed in to a hub that has a graph of the project, the server answers from the hub with the same tools (kg serve --backend auto, the default; local and hub force one or the other). Inside a run of a worker, auto and hub ask the hub with the run's worker token, signed in or not, and only local reads a graph built on the machine (docs/credentials.md).

kg_impact walks back over callers, in other files too when the caller's imports say where the callee lives, importers, members, definers, subclasses (inherits), overriding methods (overrides), implementations and tests. Each result notes, per language of its seeds, whether calls across files, inheritance and overrides are covered, and names a seed with more incoming edges than it reads (2,000), with their number. Its text lists the first 20 dependents of each hop and counts the rest (limit raises it). docs/kg.md has the coverage table per language, the fields of the result, and how the text of every tool is written.

Hooks:

• SessionStart prints a short note: the bound project, the snapshot age, and the commit each git source read with how far behind its remote's default branch that is now (commits read: app 1550c7a (3 behind origin/main)), counted from the checkout without the network.
• PostToolUse, after every evo-kg call, joins the labels of what the result revealed into a session label under ~/.evo/kg/sessions/. It only rises; kg_status shows it. In a session without evo-kg, evo-agents hub mcp joins the labels of the kg_* results the hub serves into the same label.
• PostToolUse, after Grep, or rg or grep at the head of a Bash command, adds a note beside the result when a matched line falls in a symbol or file of the graph: at most four lines after its header, each naming by id who calls it (or imports the file), its tests and the plan steps that name it. It never changes, cuts or blocks the result, and says nothing when there is nothing to add. Set EVO_KG_GREP_HINTS=0 to turn it off. docs/kg.md says how it places a matched line.

The plugin needs uv on PATH and pins the release it runs, the version in its plugin.json: the server starts with uvx --from evo-ak==<version> evo-agents, which downloads and caches that version on first start. The hooks run uvx --offline --from evo-ak==<version> evo-agents, so they never wait on the network; they stay silent when uvx is missing or until the server has cached the package.

The team hub

evo-agents hub login --url https://hub.example.org   # once per machine; the token stays in ~/.evo/hub
claude plugin install evo-hub@evo-agents

The evo-hub plugin registers the MCP server evo-hub (evo-agents hub mcp, which carries the session to the hub's /mcp), a using-agent-hub skill, and six hooks. Its tools are the seven kg_* tools and memory_search, memory_get, memory_write, plan_list, plan_show, plan_handoff, plan_step, skill_list, hub_projects and run_tool_stats. A session that has the evo-kg plugin too gets the kg_* tools and the graph's instructions from evo-kg alone: evo-hub leaves them out (it reads enabledPlugins of Claude Code's settings). In a harness whose harness.yaml names hub.project, plans live on the hub and the files under plans/ are read-only copies: mark a step with plan_step, evo-agents hub plan step or evo harness step, never by editing the YAML. To hand a plan to a new session or a subagent, give it plan_handoff (or evo-agents hub plan handoff PLAN --step KEY) rather than your history: the plan's goal, each step done with its commits and Decision: lines, and the steps left, within a token budget.

Hooks (evo-agents hub hook session-start|stop|post-tool-use|user-prompt|local-tool|session-end, same pins and || true as evo-kg):

• SessionStart pulls the hub's memories of the session directory into Claude Code's memory directory, writes the plan copies of its harness (no commit; a copy edited by hand is left as it is and named), counts the skills evo-agents hub skills sync would change, and prints one line: hub, project, memories pulled, skills to sync.

• Stop pushes the memory files that changed since the last sync, so the next session on another machine has them. A turn that wrote no memory sends nothing; when the hub does not answer, the files wait and a later Stop pushes them (state in ~/.evo/hub/memory-state.json).

• Stop also pushes the digest of a session of 6 messages or more to the project of its directory: calls and errors per tool and per Bash program, what the person wrote, model and tokens, the largest context one model call read (peak_context_tokens), the compactions, the characters of each tool's results, and how many results the spool below cut, their size before the cut and the reads of spool files, with every string that looks like a secret replaced on the machine first. A digest the hub did not take waits for a later Stop (~/.evo/hub/digest-state.json); the session of a worker run pushes none.

• PostToolUse writes a result of Bash, Grep, WebFetch or an MCP tool longer than 10,000 characters (EVO_SPOOL_THRESHOLD), and a Read longer than 40,000 (EVO_SPOOL_READ_THRESHOLD), to ~/.evo/tool-output/<session>/ (mode 0600, kept 7 days, never sent to the hub) and gives the model its head, its tail, its size and the file's path instead; the tools of evo-hub and evo-kg, which cut their own text, and a plan's handoff pass whole.

• UserPromptSubmit, a second PostToolUse hook (local-tool), Stop and SessionEnd put a local Claude Code session of a hub project on the hub as a run of kind local (shown as local in the runs list): running while the agent works, idle while it waits for you, ended at session end, with its last activity, the plan and step it marks (evo harness step, hub plan step and plan_step name the run), and a live log. The log holds the agent's words, and each tool's name, its input (300 characters) and its result (400 characters), with every string that looks like a secret replaced on the machine first (the digest's redaction). The run also carries the session id, directory, machine, the first line of your first prompt (120 characters), and the Claude account: for the Code tab of Claude Desktop the email of the session record plus the claude-profiles profile name, for the CLI oauthAccount.emailAddress of the Claude Code configuration, else unknown. EVO_HUB_LOCAL_SYNC=0 turns all of this off (Stop still pushes the digest and the memories). A session outside a hub project, and the agent of a worker run (EVO_RUN_ID), sends nothing. When the hub does not answer, events wait in ~/.evo/hub/local/<session>.json (500 at most, kept 7 days) and a later hook sends them. [Unverified] The layout of Desktop's session record and of profiles.json follows claude-profiles' README and was not checked on a Mac; EVO_CLAUDE_DESKTOP_DIRS (name=path, separated like PATH) names the data folders when the defaults miss, and a record that cannot be read gives unknown.

All of them exit 0 whatever happens and give up after a few seconds. SessionStart and Stop print at most one line without tokens or memory text and send nothing when the machine is not signed in; PostToolUse prints the shortened result or nothing.

Codex takes the same plugin (codex plugin marketplace add https://github.com/maycuatroi1/evo-agents, then codex plugin add evo-hub@evo-agents). Once you trust its hooks, which the first interactive session that loads them asks, SessionStart and Stop do in a Codex session what they do in Claude Code, and the digest is built from Codex's rollout. PostToolUse leaves Codex's output as it is: Codex ignores a replaced tool output and cuts a long one to its own tool_output_token_limit (docs/hub.md, Codex).

Workers

A worker is your own laptop or desktop running plan steps for you. You dispatch a ready step, the hub queues a run, and your worker claims it, runs the step with Claude Code, opencode or Codex CLI, and sends its log, state and evidence back, so the hub can record the step in the plan. The daemon needs the worker extra:

uv tool install 'evo-ak[worker]'    # or: pip install 'evo-ak[worker]'; with graphify: 'evo-ak[graphify,worker]'
evo-agents worker join --url https://hub.example.org --code K7QM-4XPD   # the code from the hub's Workers page
evo-agents worker register --name mac-mini --project demo --slots 1    # or this, once signed in with hub login
evo-agents worker service install   # keep the daemon running in the background
evo-agents worker doctor            # what the machine still holds that a worker should not; exit 2 on a high finding

A daemon that worker service install runs from a uv tool install of evo-ak, from git or from PyPI, updates itself to the tag nightly once it and every daemon of its install are idle, and starts again on the new version; lock its version on the worker's page to keep it where it is. A team that follows nightly installs from it: uv tool install --force 'evo-ak[worker] @ git+https://github.com/maycuatroi1/evo-agents@nightly'. docs/workers.md has the conditions, the states and how to turn it off.

Then, from any machine signed in to the hub:

evo-agents hub run dispatch rollout 2 --project demo
evo-agents hub run logs 41 --follow --project demo
evo-agents hub run approve 41 --project demo

A worker can also take a whole plan as one plan run: its agent does every step not done yet in the order depends_on allows, in a worktree of each repo those steps name, and reports each step as it goes, verified, committed and pushed on the plan's branch. It stops for you only on a decision it may not take alone (a deploy, deleting data, a migration on real data, sending outside, spending money, or an architectural or scope choice the plan leaves open), which waits in the Inbox on the web or on the command line:

evo-agents hub run plan rollout --worker mac-mini --timeout-h 8 --project demo
evo-agents hub run plan rollout --session-per-step --project demo   # each step in a new session, with the handoff
evo-agents hub decision list --state open --project demo
evo-agents hub decision answer 7 --option postgres --project demo
evo-agents hub notifications --unread

A plan run does every step in one agent session unless it is dispatched with --session-per-step: then each step gets a new session whose prompt carries the plan's handoff instead of what the sessions before it read, and the run's usage lists the session of each step. A Claude Code agent on a worker compacts its context as it nears 200,000 tokens (EVO_WORKER_CLAUDE_CODE_AUTO_COMPACT_WINDOW on the worker sets another window). A Codex agent compacts there too and keeps 8,000 tokens of each tool output (EVO_WORKER_CODEX_AUTO_COMPACT_TOKEN_LIMIT, EVO_WORKER_CODEX_TOOL_OUTPUT_TOKEN_LIMIT), and opencode clears old tool outputs (EVO_WORKER_OPENCODE_COMPACTION_PRUNE turns that off); what the owner's own codex or opencode config sets stays.

The agent on a worker runs with the full rights of the machine's owner, and only that owner dispatches runs to it. docs/workers.md describes the protocol and plan runs, docs/hub.md every hub run and hub decision command, and docs/notifications.md decisions, notices and notifications.

On a machine others also administer, keep your credentials on the hub as secrets instead: each run gets a lease of just what it needs, and the hub takes it back when the run ends (docs/credentials.md). The value goes in on stdin, or at a prompt that does not echo it, and never comes back out:

pbpaste | evo-agents hub secret set claude-oauth --kind env --env-var CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN --project demo
evo-agents hub secret list
evo-agents hub run credentials 41 --project demo   # the leases run 41 got, given back or not; never their values

Several env secrets for the same variable bound to one project are accounts, such as two Claude subscriptions: each run takes one of them by the rotation you set for the project (round-robin by default, weighted-round-robin or fill-first) and keeps it, and a headless Claude Code run whose account hits its usage limit goes on in the same session with the next one. hub account login adds a Claude account: it runs Anthropic's own claude setup-token, where you approve in the browser, and puts the token it prints on the hub without showing it, ending a year from today less a day. Run it again with the same name to renew the token, or use Add Claude account and Renew token on the web's Accounts page. hub account shows and weighs the accounts, and --account picks one by hand (docs/credentials.md, section "Accounts"):

evo-agents hub account login claude-b --project demo  # claude setup-token, then the token goes to the hub sealed
evo-agents hub account list                        # state, usage, runs and cost of each account; never a value
evo-agents hub account policy demo --strategy fill-first --cooldown 1800
evo-agents hub account pause claude-a
evo-agents hub run dispatch rollout 2 --account claude-b --project demo

Running a hub

The hub is an API server, a job worker and a web interface, published as two images on GHCR for each release and run with deploy/hub/docker-compose.yml, which can also build them from source, next to a Postgres database and a Cloudflare R2 bucket. evo-agents hub serve and evo-agents hub worker need the server extra: pip install 'evo-ak[hub-server]'. docs/hub.md covers the API and its OpenAPI document, sign-in from the CLI and the web, who sees what, the plan copies in git, workers and runs, blobs on R2, the job worker and its queue, and operations: migrations, backup, restore and health checks. docs/plugins.md covers plugins: their extension points, the plugin host and the plugin/1 protocol, pages and signing; docs/hub-deployment.md a hub for a client, from the same images, with its own branding, publishers and plugins. docs/srs-plugin.md and docs/tasks-plugin.md cover the core plugins srs (BA documents with versions, approval and @ba) and tasks (a backlog linked to use cases and plan steps).

The web

The hub's web interface (web/) is where people read the hub, answer decisions and dispatch runs. From 0.6.0 it follows the evo-agents hub UI kit, in light and dark (web/DESIGN.md):

• Home shows what waits on you, what runs, what ended lately and your workers, over every project you hold a grant on, in one request (GET /v1/me/overview). You answer a decision in a sheet over it and rerun a failed step from it.
• Every page takes the full width beside the sidebar.
• A run's page draws its phases on a timeline and reads its events as a Trace: the agent's messages, its thinking, and each tool call with its argument, exit code, duration and output. The raw log and the owner's terminal are tabs beside it, and a usage card adds up the run's tokens by type with the cost the agent reported. From 1280 px the session and the side column of cards scroll on their own. A repo links to its page on its forge, and on GitHub or GitLab its branch and commit do too.
• Monitor (/monitor) lists every run in flight over your projects and watches the ones you pick in a grid of live tiles that shares out the window: each tile a run's state, worker, time, plan steps and the tail of its trace, for viewing only. The tiles are in the URL (?runs=project:id,...), so a link opens the same grid.
• A plan's page shows its steps as Board, List or Graph (?view=graph): the graph draws each step under the steps it waits for, marks the Ready ones, and a step selected (&step=11) opens its details beside the graph, read only.
• Insights charts a project's runs by day over 7, 30 or 90 days: outcomes, failure rate, run time and tokens (GET /v1/projects/{project}/runs/stats), each chart with its table.
• Administration lists what needs a hub admin (GET /v1/admin/overview): tokens expiring or unused, failed graph builds, offline workers, people granted a role who have not signed in yet.
• Cmd K or Ctrl K opens a command palette that jumps to runs, plans and workers and offers the actions your grants allow. ? lists the keyboard shortcuts: G then H, I, P, R or W to move, D to dispatch, / to search.
• Under 768 px tables become lists, filters move into a sheet, and a decision is a screen of its own.
• Each project's Curator page shows the night shift, its proposals with their evidence, and the charter.

The Curator

The Curator is a project's night shift on the hub. Inside the hours its charter sets, the hub queues runs on one member's worker without anybody pressing Run: a review run that reads the project's sessions, runs and code and proposes changes with evidence, a Builder that makes an accepted change on a branch curator/..., and a Judge that checks the pull request without reading the Builder's transcript. The hub computes each change's tier, merges only tier 0 and only when the charter, CI, the Judge and the repo's ruleset all allow it, and sends the owner a morning brief on the web and Telegram:

evo-agents hub curator charter set charter.yaml --project demo   # an admin of the project
evo-agents hub curator status --project demo
evo-agents hub curator proposal list --state open --project demo
evo-agents hub curator pause --project demo

docs/curator.md describes the charter, the night shift and its caps, the tiers, the three roles, the Curator's own GitHub App and the ruleset it needs, and Telegram.

Running steps on your machine

A member's laptop or desktop can run plan steps the hub hands it, with that member's own coding agent:

uv tool install 'evo-ak[worker]'
evo-agents worker join --url https://hub.example.org --code XXXX-XXXX   # the code from the web's Workers page
evo-agents worker run                                                    # the daemon, in the foreground

The daemon claims runs, checks each run's repos, credentials and the programs its verify calls before the agent starts, works in a git worktree of its own under ~/.evo/worker, runs the agent's verify commands again, and pushes the plan's branch, never forced. A run of one step never pushes the default branch; a plan run pushes it only when the plan names it, putting its own commits on top when someone pushed meanwhile, or on evo-run/<run> when they do not fit. On macOS the daemon keeps the machine awake while it holds a run, unless it is a laptop with its lid closed on battery. docs/workers.md covers the protocol and the daemon.

Writing a connector

A connector is a generator in process or any executable. It writes JSON objects, one per line: hello first, then item, tombstone, listing, state, error, log, and closed last. Item IDs are <source>:<kind>:<native key>; every item carries a revision and a content hash over canonical JSON. Deletions are only inferred from a scoped listing that ends with complete: true, so a connector that dies half-way never deletes anything.

evo-agents kg connector test -- my-cli kg-connector wiki --fixture tests/fixtures/wiki

checks protocol, determinism, replay and permutation, truncated listings, golden output and labels.
