WorkGraph Reference

WorkGraph is an optional realm-scoped subsystem. Agents mutate it through tools. Host RPC, REST, and CLI expose read-only observability/operator lookup.

WorkItem

FieldTypeDescription
idWorkItemIdUnique work item id
realm_idstringRealm that owns the item
namespaceWorkNamespaceNamespace within the realm, default default
titlestringShort title
descriptionstring?Optional detail
statusWorkStatusLifecycle status
priority`lowmediumhigh`Priority
labelsstring[]Filtering and grouping labels
ownerWorkOwner?Intended owner or assignee
claimWorkClaim?Active claim owner and optional lease
machine_stateobjectGenerated WorkGraph lifecycle machine state
revisionu64CAS revision for write tools
due_atRFC3339 timestamp?Due time
not_beforeRFC3339 timestamp?Earliest eligibility time
snoozed_untilRFC3339 timestamp?Snooze gate
created_atRFC3339 timestampCreation time
updated_atRFC3339 timestampLast update time
terminal_atRFC3339 timestamp?Terminal time
external_refsExternalWorkRef[]Typed pointers to external objects
evidence_refsWorkEvidenceRef[]Typed evidence pointers

Statuses

StatusMeaning
openCreated and not currently claimed
in_progressClaimed or actively being worked
blockedNot ready because a block exists or machine state is blocked
completedTerminal success
cancelledTerminal cancellation
failedTerminal failure
Terminal items cannot be claimed.

Edge Kinds

KindMeaning
blocksSource must resolve before target can be ready
parentHierarchical grouping
relatedNon-blocking association
supersedesSource replaces target
derived_fromSource was derived from target
WorkGraph rejects invalid endpoints, self edges, duplicate edges, and cycles for blocks and parent.

Owners And Claims

WorkOwnerKey.kind is one of:
  • principal
  • agent
  • session
  • mob
  • label
Claims are revision-based. Mutating tools require the current expected_revision. Optional leases allow abandoned work to become recoverable through machine- approved transitions.

Evidence Refs

WorkEvidenceRef contains:
FieldTypeDescription
kindstringEvidence type, such as artifact, pr, log, summary, or notification
idstringExternal or Meerkat-owned artifact id
labelstring?Human label
summarystring?Short explanation
Evidence refs are pointers. WorkGraph does not own the artifact content.

Agent Tools

ToolPurpose
workgraph_createCreate a work item
workgraph_getRead one item
workgraph_listList items
workgraph_readyList machine-derived ready items
workgraph_snapshotRead items, edges, ready ids, scope, timestamp, and event high-water mark
workgraph_eventsRead event history
workgraph_claimClaim an item with CAS revision
workgraph_releaseRelease an active claim
workgraph_updateUpdate mutable item fields
workgraph_blockPut an item into blocked state
workgraph_closeClose as completed, cancelled, or failed
workgraph_linkAdd a graph edge
workgraph_add_evidenceAdd an evidence reference

Read-Only RPC

MethodPurpose
workgraph/getRead one item
workgraph/listList items
workgraph/readyList ready items
workgraph/snapshotRead graph snapshot
workgraph/eventsRead event history
Mutating WorkGraph RPC methods are intentionally absent in v1.

Read-Only REST

MethodPathPurpose
GET/workgraph/itemsList items
GET/workgraph/items/{id}Read one item
GET/workgraph/readyList ready items
GET/workgraph/snapshotRead graph snapshot
GET/workgraph/eventsRead event history
Common query parameters: realm_id, namespace, all_namespaces, statuses, labels, include_terminal, limit, and after_seq for events.

Read-Only CLI

rkat workgraph list [--namespace <NS>] [--all-namespaces] [--status <STATUS>] [--label <LABEL>] [--include-terminal] [--limit <N>] [--json]
rkat workgraph show <ID> [--namespace <NS>] [--json]
rkat workgraph ready [--namespace <NS>] [--label <LABEL>] [--limit <N>] [--json]
rkat workgraph snapshot [--namespace <NS>] [--all-namespaces] [--status <STATUS>] [--label <LABEL>] [--include-terminal] [--limit <N>] [--json]
rkat workgraph events [--namespace <NS>] [--all-namespaces] [--after-seq <N>] [--limit <N>] [--json]
CLI commands use the same realm flags as other rkat commands.

Companion Skill

workgraph-workflow is an embedded builtin companion skill gated by the work_graph capability. It teaches agents how to use the WorkGraph tool family. It is discoverable through the normal skills inventory and is not automatically preloaded.
