让旧流程无缝接入智能代理,关键在可控的介入机制。

A Process Harness for Uplifting Legacy Workflows to Agentic BPM: Design and Realization in CUGA FLO

  • 在旧工作流外加一层智能代理层,按规则介入控制点
  • 三类代理协同:任务、决策、流程自适应,全靠政策约束
  • 适合需合规又想智能化的金融审批等复杂场景

我们提出过程钩子(process harness)机制,将传统工作流升级为具备智能代理能力的业务流程管理(Agentic BPM),无需替换原有引擎。该机制在确定性工作流引擎外部增加一层受策略管控的智能代理层,于预设控制点介入,实现推理、动态调整与监督,同时保留引擎对流程结构的主导权。为严谨定义此机制,我们构建了任务-决策-流程(TDF)模型,明确其数据结构与执行语义。TDF将大模型推理分解为三种受策略约束的代理类型:任务代理负责知识密集型任务执行,决策代理处理每案例网关路由,流程代理通过规范化的钩子机制实现运行时流程自适应。各代理均在源自流程框架(FRAME)的统一策略下进行推理,即系统内所有大模型调用的策略集合。随后,我们以CUGA FLO为实例实现了TDF模型,并在贷款审批流程中验证了三类代理及钩子驱动的监管覆盖功能。该机制独特地融合了强制性要求(由确定性执行保障结构合规)与规范性要求(由策略框架下的代理自治在必要时触发),实现二者协调统一。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

We introduce the process harness, a new mechanism for uplifting legacy workflows into Agentic Business Process Management (Agentic BPM) without replacing the underlying workflow engine. A process harness places a policy-governed agentic layer around a deterministic workflow engine, intercepting designated control points to contribute reasoning, adaptation, and oversight while the engine retains structural authority over the process. To define the process harness rigorously, we develop the Task-Decision-Flow (TDF) model, specifying both its data schema and its execution semantics. TDF decomposes LLM reasoning across three policy-governed agent types: a TaskAgent for knowledge-intensive task execution, a DecisionAgent for per-case gateway routing, and a FlowAgent that governs runtime flow adaptation through a principled hook mechanism. Each agent reasons within an explicit policy drawn from the process FRAME, the aggregate policy set governing all LLM calls in the system. We then present CUGA FLO as the design and implementation realization of the TDF model, and demonstrate it on a loan approval workflow that exercises all three agent types and hook-driven regulatory override. The process harness uniquely reconciles imperative requirements, realized through deterministic workflow execution that enforces structural compliance, with normative requirements, realized through policy-framed agentic autonomy invoked at designated control points wherever the process demands it.
