Drafting, scoring rationales, review panels, and deliverable generation are AI jobs. By default a provider router runs them with Anthropic, OpenAI, or xAI models at a fast, standard, or deep tier. With the agent driver, an external agent claims jobs from the queue, does the work with whatever it has, and hands the output back. This lets a Cowork session, a Claude Code session, or any MCP client be the model.

# Claim a queued AI job, do the work, hand back the output
curl "https://api.epiensos.com/v1/ai/jobs?status=queued" -H "Authorization: Bearer epk_live_..."
curl -X POST "https://api.epiensos.com/v1/ai/jobs/job_789/claim" -H "Authorization: Bearer epk_live_..."
curl -X POST "https://api.epiensos.com/v1/ai/jobs/job_789/complete" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer epk_live_..." \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "output": { "content": "Specific Aims. ..." } }'

Outputs must not contain semicolons or em dashes. A post processor rewrites any that slip through, and the writing rules are included in every job payload.
