A TypeScript workflow tool that keeps deterministic code in charge and calls AI only for clearly bounded steps.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-20 issue.
For
TypeScript developers building controlled AI workflows
Worth noticing
Four primitives separate deterministic steps, model calls, bounded agents, and human approval pauses.

Field notes

Chloe exposes four distinct control points: deterministic steps, schema-based model questions, bounded agents, and pauses for human input. Its displayed example reads a shop inbox, classifies each message, then uses a code-defined desk lookup to route work, keeping free-form model text away from the next executable branch. The page also specifies Node 22.18 or newer, zod, and SQLite.
