## What This Does
**14 MCP Tools** that add collaboration primitives to any AI agent:
| Tool | Primitive | What it does |
|------|-----------|-------------|
| `cowork_propose` | Intent Declaration | Agent proposes before acting. Trust score + field type determine: act / suggest / escalate |
| `cowork_approve` | Approval Signal | Human approves proposal. Trust +0.02, closes positive feedback loop |
| `cowork_override` | Override Signal | Human corrects agent. Trust degrades. 5 categories × 4 severity levels |
| `cowork_check_trust` | Trust Score | Trust level + accuracy + operating mode for any (agent, domain) |
| `cowork_handoff` | Context Packet | Escalate to human with structured context: reason, confidence, attempted actions |
| `cowork_check_handoff` | Handoff Callback | Agent polls for resolved handoffs with instructions. Enables agent continuation after human escalation |
| `cowork_log` | Action Attribution | Log action with actor (agent / human / collaborative) |
| `cowork_validate_policy` | Action Scope | Pre-flight policy check. Field constraints + policy attribution. Hard-stop vs warning |
| `cowork_bulk_approve` | Batch Approval | Approve 50+ proposals in one human decision |
| `cowork_bulk_reject` | Batch Override | Reject multiple proposals with a single reason |
| `cowork_resolve_handoff` | Handoff Resolution | Human resolves escalation. Optionally hands work back with instructions |
| `cowork_audit_trail` | Action Attribution | Full chain: propose → approve → execute → verify |
| `cowork_governance_report` | Intervention Map | Detect orphaned executions, slow decisions, missing approvals |
| `cowork_status` | Dashboard | Trust scores, override rates, pending proposals, timeline |

## Installation
### Option 1: Local Development (Works Now) ✅
```bash
git clone https://github.com/kamesh231/human-agent-cowork-mcp-server.git
cd human-agent-cowork-mcp-server
npm install
npm run build
npm run start
```
**Expected output:**
```
🤝 COWORK MCP Server v0.1.0 started
Auth: open mode (demo) | Mode: suggest | Trust default: 0.3
```
#### Claude Desktop
Edit `~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"cowork": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["/full/path/to/human-agent-cowork-mcp-server/build/index.js"]
}
}
}
```
Restart Claude Desktop → cowork tools appear.
#### Claude Code
```bash
claude mcp add cowork node "$(pwd)/build/index.js"
```
### Option 2: Global npm (Coming After Week 3) ⏳
```bash
# Not yet available. Will work after npm publish:
npm install -g @cowork/mcp-server
```
---
## How to Implement
### Step 1 — Demo Mode (No Auth)
By default the server runs in **open mode** — any `agent_id` is accepted, no token needed.
```bash
npm run start
# Auth: open mode (demo) | Mode: suggest | Trust default: 0.3
```
All 13 tools immediately available. Good for prototyping.
### Step 2 — Register Your Agents (Closed Auth)
Generate tokens and add them to `cowork.config.yaml`:
```bash
# Generate token + hash for each agent
node -e "
const {generateToken, hashToken} = require('./build/auth.js');
const t = generateToken();
console.log('token:', t);
console.log('hash:', hashToken(t));
"
```
```yaml
# cowork.config.yaml
agents:
- id: "sales-agent"
token: "sk-cowork-abc123..." # Dev: plaintext in config
- id: "support-agent"
token: "sk-cowork-xyz789..."
```
Server output changes to: `Auth: closed mode (2 agents)`
> **Production mode:** Use `token_hash` instead of `token` and load plaintext tokens via `.env`
### Step 3 — Map Each Agent to Its Policies
> ⏳ **Week 3 feature — available soon.** Currently all agents share the global policy.
**The problem it solves:** With one global policy and multiple agents, you cannot answer "which
policy fired for which agent?" You can't verify that `sales-agent` is constrained by CRM rules
while `support-agent` gets support rules — or test that both share a policy in the same domain.
**Three-section design** (policies defined once, referenced by ID in mappings):
```yaml
# Section 1 — Named rule sets. Define once, share across many agents.
policies:
- id: "crm-write-policy"
description: "Standard write access for CRM fields"
rules:
- field: "deal_stage"
constraint: "high_risk" # always requires human review
- field: "amount"
constraint: "value_range"
min: 0
max: 500000
- field: "commission"
constraint: "readonly"
reason: "Finance team only"
- id: "support-write-policy"
description: "Write access for support ticket fields"
rules:
- field: "priority"
constraint: "enum"
values: ["low", "medium", "high", "critical"]
- field: "billing_*"
constraint: "readonly"
reason: "Billing fields require finance approval"
# Section 2 — Agent identity only. No rules embedded here.
agents:
- id: "sales-agent"
token: "sk-cowork-..."
- id: "support-agent"
token: "sk-cowork-..."
# Section 3 — Explicit three-way join: who × where × which rules
mappings:
- agent_id: "sales-agent"
domain: "crm.deals"
policy_id: "crm-write-policy"
- agent_id: "support-agent"
domain: "support.tickets"
policy_id: "support-write-policy"
# 2 agents → 1 policy: support-agent uses same CRM rules as sales-agent
- agent_id: "support-agent"
domain: "crm.deals"
policy_id: "crm-write-policy"
# 1 agent → 2 policies: sales-agent has support rules when working tickets
- agent_id: "sales-agent"
domain: "support.tickets"
policy_id: "support-write-policy"
```
**Blocking behavior:** If an agent proposes in a domain with no `mappings` entry, the proposal
is blocked and escalated to a human asking for permission. No silent fallback.
**Proposal response will include which policy fired:**
```json
{
"proposal_id": "uuid",
"mode": "suggest",
"trust_level": 0.3,
"high_risk_field": true,
"policy_id": "crm-write-policy",
"policy_description": "Standard write access for CRM fields",
"policy_rules_checked": 3,
"mapping_found": true
}
```
This makes policy attribution **testable**: `assert(response.policy_id === "crm-write-policy")`
is unambiguous regardless of which agent made the proposal.
**Why not RBAC?** The structure looks similar (user → role → permission) but the semantics
differ: policies here are dynamic — the same policy produces `escalate`, `suggest`, or `act`
based on the agent's earned trust score. RBAC is binary (allowed/denied). COWORK is gradient
(how much autonomy, right now, given this agent's track record). See [WEEK3_PLAN.md](./WEEK3_PLAN.md)
for the full design rationale.
### Step 4 — Configure Trust & Authority (Global Defaults)
```yaml
# cowork.config.yaml
trust:
default_level: 0.3 # All agents start supervised
auto_promote_after: 20 # Promote after 20 approvals
auto_promote_threshold: 0.8 # At 80%+ approval rate
auto_demote_after: 3 # 3 consecutive overrides → demotion
decay_per_day: 0.01 # Trust decays 1%/day without activity (⏳ Week 3)
authority:
default_mode: "suggest"
volume_cap: 50 # Max proposals/hour per agent (⏳ enforced in Week 3)
high_risk_fields: # Global: always require human review
- "deal_stage"
- "owner"
- "commission"
- "utm_*"
- "billing_*"
- "password"
- "permissions"
```
### Step 5 — Wire Into Your Agent
```javascript
// Agent proposes before acting
const proposal = await cowork_propose({
agent_id: "sales-agent",
agent_token: "sk-cowork-...",
domain: "crm.deals",
action: "update_deal",
target: "deal_12345",
proposed_change: JSON.stringify({ deal_stage: "closed_won" }),
confidence: 0.92,
reasoning: "All criteria met: budget approved, stakeholder consensus",
field: "deal_stage"
});
// Handle the three operating modes
if (proposal.mode === "act") {
// Trust ≥ 0.8, proceed autonomously
await db.update("deals", "deal_12345", { deal_stage: "closed_won" });
} else if (proposal.mode === "suggest") {
// Trust 0.5–0.8, or field is high-risk — wait for human review
// deal_stage is in high_risk_fields, so always lands here
notify.send(`📋 Awaiting review: ${proposal.proposal_id}`);
} else {
// Trust < 0.5, escalate to human
await cowork_handoff({
agent_id: "sales-agent",
agent_token: "sk-cowork-...",
domain: "crm.deals",
reason: "Trust too low to proceed",
confidence: proposal.confidence,
attempted_actions: JSON.stringify(["cowork_propose returned escalate"]),
context: JSON.stringify({ proposal_id: proposal.proposal_id }),
handoff_mode: "escalate"
});
}
```
### Step 6 — Integrate Human Feedback
```javascript
// Approve — closes the positive feedback loop
await cowork_approve({
proposal_id: "uuid",
agent_id: "sales-agent",
domain: "crm.deals",
feedback: "Looks good — legal confirmed"
});
// Effect: trust +0.02, proposal marked approved
// Correct — closes the negative feedback loop
await cowork_override({
agent_id: "sales-agent",
domain: "crm.deals",
action_description: "Deal closure was premature",
override_type: "agent_wrong",
severity: "high",
description: "Contract still being negotiated"
});
// Effect: trust -0.12 (0.08 × 1.5 severity), consecutive_overrides +1
```
---
## How Mode Is Determined
`cowork_propose` uses **two-factor logic** to set the operating mode:
### Factor 1: High-Risk Field Check
If the field being modified is in `high_risk_fields` (or per-agent policy rules after Week 3):
```
deal_stage, owner, commission, utm_*, billing_*, password, permissions
→ Mode = "suggest" regardless of trust level
```
### Factor 2: Trust-Based Check (for non-high-risk fields)
```
trust < 0.5 → mode = "escalate" (human must handle it)
0.5 ≤ trust < 0.8 → mode = "suggest" (propose and wait for approval)
trust ≥ 0.8 → mode = "act" (proceed autonomously)
```
### Verified Response Structure
Tested and confirmed from live test run:
```json
{
"proposal_id": "9f8710ef-c245-4c19-9ff1-810ac300c185",
"action_id": "e5c3a1d2-4f6b-11ec-81d3-0242ac130003",
"mode": "escalate",
"trust_level": 0.3,
"confidence": 0.85,
"high_risk_field": false,
"policy_warnings": 0,
"message": "🚨 ESCALATED: Trust (0.30) too low. Proposal 9f8710ef..."
}
```
Key field names: `trust_level` (not `trust.score`), `high_risk_field` (boolean).
---
## Domain & Agent Mapping
### Agents Are Explicitly Registered
```yaml
agents:
- id: "sales-agent"
token: "sk-cowork-abc..."
- id: "support-agent"
token: "sk-cowork-xyz..."
```
Every tool call must include matching `agent_id` + `agent_token`. Server rejects unknown agents in closed mode.
### Domains Are Agent-Chosen (Organic)
Domains are **not pre-registered** — agents name them at proposal time. Any string works:
```javascript
// Domains are just strings agents choose
domain: "crm.deals" // sales agent's scope
domain: "support.tickets" // support agent's scope
domain: "docs.api-ref" // documentation agent's scope
```
**Trust is tracked per (agent_id, domain) pair:**
```
sales-agent : crm.deals → trust 0.85 → mode: act
sales-agent : crm.contacts → trust 0.40 → mode: suggest
sales-agent : support.tickets → trust 0.30 → mode: escalate
support-agent : support.tickets → trust 0.72 → mode: suggest
```
Same agent can be trusted in one domain but not another.
---
## Override Categories & Severity
When a human corrects an agent, they categorize *why*:
| Category | Base Impact | When to Use |
|----------|-------------|-------------|
| `agent_wrong` | −0.08 | Factual or logical error |
| `missing_context` | −0.03 | Should have escalated, didn't have info |
| `edge_case` | −0.02 | Unusual situation, hard to anticipate |
| `human_preference` | −0.01 | Agent was correct, human prefers different approach |
| `policy_change` | 0.00 | Rules changed — not the agent's fault |
**Severity multiplier** scales the base impact:
| Severity | Multiplier | Example |
|----------|-----------|---------|
| `low` | 0.5× | Minor wording preference |
| `medium` | 1.0× | Standard correction |
| `high` | 1.5× | Serious error with real consequences |
| `critical` | 2.5× | Breach of policy or major failure |
Example: `agent_wrong` + `high` severity = −0.08 × 1.5 = **−0.12 trust**
---
## Volume Cap Enforcement
Agents are rate-limited to prevent runaway behavior. The limit is **per (agent, domain) pair**:
```yaml
# cowork.config.yaml
authority:
volume_cap: 50 # Max proposals per hour
```
**Enforcement:** Every `cowork_propose` call checks the proposal count in the last 60 minutes for that (agent_id, domain). If the agent would exceed the cap with this proposal, the proposal is rejected with `VolumeCapError`.
**Response includes feedback:**
```json
{
"volume_cap": 50,
"volume_remaining": 12,
"proposal_id": "uuid",
"mode": "suggest"
}
```
This allows agents to monitor their own rate and back off voluntarily.
---
## Trust Decay
Agents lose trust gradually when inactive. This prevents "earn trust once, coast forever."
```yaml
# cowork.config.yaml
trust:
decay_per_day: 0.01 # 1% per day
```
**How it works:**
- Decay is applied lazily on-read (no background job needed)
- Each time `cowork_check_trust` or `cowork_propose` runs, the trust score is recalculated
- Formula: `new_score = current_score - (days_since_last_activity × decay_per_day)`
- Minimum trust: 0.1 (never decays below this)
**Example:** If an agent at 0.8 trust stops proposing for 10 days:
```
0.8 - (10 × 0.01) = 0.8 - 0.1 = 0.7 (now in "suggest" mode instead of "act")
```
Reset decay by proposing again, or be approved. Each approval and proposal activity timestamp resets the decay clock.
---
## Handoff Callback Loop
When agents escalate via `cowork_handoff`, they don't just disappear. Humans can hand the work back with instructions, and the agent polls for those instructions.
### Agent Flow
```javascript
// Step 1: Agent escalates
const handoff = await cowork_handoff({
agent_id: "sales-agent",
domain: "crm.deals",
reason: "Trust too low to modify deal_stage",
confidence: 0.85,
attempted_actions: JSON.stringify(["check budget", "verify stakeholders"]),
context: JSON.stringify({ deal_id: "12345", issue: "..." })
});
// Agent receives handoff_id and waits
const handoff_id = handoff.handoff_id;
// Step 2: Human resolves with instructions (happens in UI or via cowork_resolve_handoff)
// Human chooses: approve and/or hand back with instructions
// Example: "You can proceed, but only if both stakeholders have confirmed in writing"
// Step 3: Agent polls for the resolution and instructions
const callback = await cowork_check_handoff({
agent_id: "sales-agent",
domain: "crm.deals" // optional — omit to check all domains
});
if (callback.pending_handoffs.length > 0) {
const handoff = callback.pending_handoffs[0];
if (handoff.hand_back === true) {
// Human handed work back with instructions
console.log("Instructions:", handoff.instructions);
// "Check for written stakeholder confirmation before proceeding"
// Verify constraint and try again
if (stakeholders_confirmed) {
await cowork_propose({ /* same proposal */ });
}
}
}
```
### Human Flow
```javascript
// Human sees escalated work in dashboard
const status = await cowork_status({ agent_id: "sales-agent" });
// Shows pending handoffs with agent's reasoning and context
// Human resolves with instructions
await cowork_resolve_handoff({
handoff_id: "uuid",
resolution: "approved",
hand_back: true, // Agent can continue
instructions: "Proceed only if both stakeholders have written confirmation in the deal notes"
});
// Agent's next cowork_check_handoff call returns this instruction
// Agent can now take informed action or ask clarifying questions
```
---
## Real-World Cases This Protocol Addresses
### CRM Data Integrity (HubSpot Case)
The CRM case study describes an agent with full write access that silently corrupted data for
3 weeks. Root cause: no field restrictions, no volume caps, no approval flow.
**What COWORK provides:**
- `high_risk_fields` blocks direct writes to deal_stage, commission, utm_*
- `volume_cap` pauses agent at 50 proposals/hour (enforced in Week 3)
- `cowork_propose` creates a staging layer before any write
- `cowork_override` with categorized reason creates a feedback loop
### Support Handoff Failures (Intercom Case)
50% of conversations required human handoff. Context was lost at every handoff — humans
re-read full transcripts and customers repeated themselves.
**What COWORK provides:**
- `cowork_handoff` carries structured context: reason, confidence, attempted_actions
- Per-domain trust (`support.tickets` separate from `billing.issues`)
- `cowork_resolve_handoff` lets human hand work back with instructions (callback in Week 3)
### Cross-Environment Context Loss
Two agents (Claude Desktop + Claude Code) sharing a filesystem but not sharing decision state.
The em-dash incident: Claude Desktop approved 80 replacements without knowing *why* they were made.
**What COWORK provides:**
- `cowork_handoff` context packet carries *decision state*, not just output state
- `cowork_log` with `actor: "agent"` attributes which environment made the change
- Timeline events allow reconstruction of cross-environment sequence
---
## Testing
### Automated Test Suite (Jest) ✅
```bash
npm test
```
**49 tests, 4 categories, all passing:**
#### Trust & Mode Determination (10 tests)
- Initial trust defaults to 0.3 → mode=escalate
- High-risk field (deal_stage) → mode=suggest regardless of trust
- Trust 0.85 → mode=act (autonomous)
- Approval increases trust +0.02
- Override with severity multiplier (high: 1.5×) decreases trust correctly
- 3 consecutive overrides triggers demotion
- Trust decay applied correctly (1% per day)
- Auto-promotion at 80% approval rate after 20 approvals
#### Policy Mapping & Attribution (17 tests)
- 2 agents + 1 policy: sales-agent & support-agent both use crm-write-policy
- 1 agent + 2 policies: sales-agent uses crm-write-policy in crm.deals AND support-write-policy in support.tickets
- Unmapped domain returns mapping_found=false (escalates gracefully)
- Policy constraints evaluated: high_risk, readonly, value_range, enum, regex
- Wildcard matching works (billing_* matches billing_amount, billing_status)
- Policy attribution in response: policy_id, policy_description, rules_checked
#### Authentication (10 tests)
- sales-agent token validates against config
- Invalid token throws AuthError
- Open mode accepts any agent_id
- Closed mode rejects unknown agents
- Token generation and hashing work correctly
#### Integration (12 tests)
- Full cowork_propose flow with auth + policy resolution
- Volume cap enforcement (50/hour) with volume_remaining feedback
- High-risk field detection + policy rules checked count
- Handoff callback loop: escalate → resolve → agent polls → continues
- Mode determination respects both high-risk check AND trust-based check
