Conduit capability brief
Conduit is the workflow runtime for work you have to answer for. Everything below is labelled by what it actually does today versus what it is built to become.
The problem
The gap it closes
Automation spreads across a dozen tools before anyone decides it should. Each one runs something important. Nobody can answer, in one sentence, what ran last night, as whom, or with which credential.
State of the build
What it does today, and what is still in progress.
Built, tested, and running on the left. Sequenced but not yet claimed as done on the right. The line between the two columns is the point of this page.
WHAT IT DOES TODAY
- DAG executor with 20+ live step handlers: HTTP, Postgres, LLM calls, transforms, chat webhooks. Not a demo shell.
- Kick a workflow, get a run id back immediately, then poll or stream its status. No agent has to sit and wait.
- Publish any workflow as a signed, rate-limited API endpoint another system calls.
- Nine formats in, eleven out. Seven of them round-trip, so a workflow you import can be changed and exported straight back to where it came from.
- Every run is authenticated, logged, and queryable: what touched a given secret, what a given agent could reach, what changed and when.
- 1,254 passing tests. Not a pitch deck. A codebase.
IN PROGRESS, NAMED RATHER THAN CLAIMED
- Postgres executes for real today, but only against demo tables. Connect-your-own is pending.
- Durable pause and resume: a workflow paused waiting on a human or an event survives a restart and resumes exactly once, never twice, never lost.
- Dead-letter and replay from the exact failed step, rather than a re-run from the top.
- Tiered execution: work that must stay inside your infrastructure runs inside your infrastructure. The boundary is enforced at runtime, not a badge.
- Remaining sends (email, S3, Airtable, Notion, Sheets) stay visibly sandboxed until they're real. A run never silently reports success on a step that didn't fire.
Where it fits
One cell in the Hexvar lattice.
Conduit is one cell in the Hexvar trust lattice, the piece that runs work. It sits beside the pieces that hold your secrets, prove your identity, and keep the audit trail. Adopt one cell without adopting all of them; each stands on its own.
Scope
What Conduit is not.
Not a chatbot. Not a second copy of your CRM or your books. Not a rip-and-replace of the tools you already run. An n8n or Zapier workflow comes in as-is.
Every line on this page is labelled by real state. Nothing here claims a status the product has not earned. If a capability is in progress, it says so.
