Point Worca at a project and describe the work. A deterministic engine drives AI agents through Plan → Refine → Implement → Review — looping until the work clears quality gates, pausing to ask you the questions that matter, and keeping every run isolated in its own git worktree and branch.

Agents do the creative work; the engine does the control flow. Every step, verdict, and artifact is recorded — nothing depends on an agent remembering to behave.
Hidden decisions become multiple-choice questions before any code is written. Your answers travel with the plan.
The planner explores the codebase and writes an implementation plan with concrete code snippets.
The refiner reviews and rewrites the plan — v2, v3, … — until no critical or major issues remain.
The implementer follows the approved plan with no deviation, using TDD: red, green, refactor.
The reviewer reads the diff and hands blocking findings back to the implementer — looping until clean.
Loops gate to you past their cycle cap: approve another cycle, or continue with the open issues shown. A finished run ends on its own branch — one click from a PR.

Clarify — the pipeline asks before it assumes.
The diff per file, per-step costs and durations, the clarify Q&A, agent transcripts, and logs — kept for every finished run, across every project on your machine.

Run detail — diff, per-step costs, one-click PR.
Drag agents onto a canvas to build sequential steps, parallel groups, and feedback loops — an agent that emits a verdict can loop back to an earlier step until it passes or hits its cycle cap. Saved workflows appear in the New Pipeline picker.

Workflow Composer — steps, groups, and loops on a canvas.
Planner, refiner, plan reviewer, implementer, code reviewer, clarify, decomposer, manual-test checklist, web-UI tester, workspace scanner, workspace reviewer. Each agent is a markdown prompt plus a metadata sidecar — new agents drop in without engine changes.

Agents — data-driven, editable, per-agent model & effort.
Named policy sets, selected per run. Policies compile to hard permission denies on every agent spawn — repo settings can't undo them.
Let agents move fast in sandboxes and throwaway projects.
Protects credential files and blocks publication commands.
Adds environment scrub on spawn, network-egress and cloud-CLI denies, and home-dir credential protection.

Guardrails — pick the perimeter per run.
Bundled two-way channels: get notified on questions, finishes, failures, and cost pauses — and answer back with commands, with allowlist-based authorization.
Per-run and per-step cost estimates, a Statistics view with spend, time, and outcome charts, and a spend indicator always in the sidebar.

Statistics — spend, time worked, outcomes per day, week, or month.
Worca ships as a web UI, a CLI, and an installable skill for your coding agent — all running the same deterministic engine. Requires Node.js ≥ 22.13.
One npm package: engine, web UI, and CLI included.
