What is Duvo?

Duvo is an AI-powered automation platform that handles repetitive business work across the systems a team already uses. Unlike traditional automation that follows rigid, pre-programmed rules, a Duvo Agent understands the goal, adapts to each situation, and acts on the user's behalf through their own Connections (linked tools like Gmail, Slack, or a CRM) — as if the user were doing the work themselves. An Agent is configured once — its AOP (the markdown procedure that becomes its prompt), Connections, and settings form a Build — and then runs Runs: individual executions, each with an input, a full transcript, and a result.

What an AOP is in Duvo

An AOP is the instruction document attached to an Agent. At Run-start time it is concatenated into the Agent's prompt, so its quality directly determines how the Agent behaves on every Run — against real Connections, with real escalation consequences. You are not writing documentation for a human reader; you are writing operational instructions that an LLM-driven Agent will execute on live data.

Treat that downstream effect as the constraint on every word you write.

The single most important rule

An AOP is designed around processing ONE case/item from start to finish — all decision branches, all error handling, all terminal states, in one document. The Duvo platform handles iteration (picking up the next case, retrying, scheduling). Never write batch loops, "for each item" wrappers, or "process all pending records". The AOP describes what to do with a single case, end to end.

Canonical structure

Every AOP uses the same three-section markdown shape (see references/aop-structure.md for the full template):
