How it works

How Thaumaton Works

Thaumaton starts with a work item and ends with an implementation, review, or pause based on your configured guards.

1. Intake

Work enters from a work input that your team already uses. Today, the supported public example is GitHub Issues. Planned integrations include ServiceNow (Planned) and Zendesk (Planned).

2. Execution

Thaumaton routes the request to an execution provider, currently GitHub Copilot CLI. The agent reads the issue, plans the work, and carries out the task within the configured repo access boundaries.

3. Verification

Completed work is reviewed against the configured workflow, including model and repo controls, issue comments, and final review stages that keep approvals visible.

4. Delivery

Teams choose how far automation should go: review-only, implementation with governance, or a flow with explicit approval checkpoints. Thaumaton does not promise zero-approval execution.

Current example

A GitHub issue is labelled, selected, and run through the configured Copilot CLI workflow. The agent can create a branch, update files, and prepare a change with the review context preserved.
