Hephaestus: How Semi-Structured AI Workflows Adapt and Evolve Autonomously The Core Challenge in AI-Driven Development What if AI workflows could write their own instructions as agents discover what needs to be done? Hephaestus solves this by enabling AI agents to dynamically create tasks based on their discoveries, allowing workflows to adapt in real-time without requiring predefined branches for every possible scenario. This semi-structured approach represents a fundamental shift from traditional AI workflow frameworks that struggle with unexpected discoveries during execution. In traditional agentic frameworks, developers must anticipate every possible branch and write corresponding instructions upfront. This creates a significant limitation …
