Strategies

A Strategy is an operating role played by an existing Workstream. It is not a separate Erdo resource. Use a long-lived root workstream for the business outcome and attach each campaign workstream directly beneath it with the existing workstream resource type and child relationship. Experiments remain hosted by the workstream doing the work. A campaign experiment therefore lives on its campaign workstream, while the root workstream supervises the portfolio.

Attach campaign workstreams

The same operation is available through erdo_attach_workstream_resource and POST /v1/workstreams/:slug/resources.

Read the portfolio

erdo workstream ledger <strategy-slug>, erdo_read_workstream_ledger, and GET /v1/workstreams/:slug/ledger return a one-level child_portfolio. Each entry contains the child workstream, experiment counts, and open-attention count. The read is deliberately one level deep and includes only direct children in the same organization and project. Deeper execution detail remains on each child workstream’s own ledger.
The project filter compares each child against the root’s project, and attaching across projects is not an error. A child created in a different project attaches successfully, returns 200, and is then absent from child_portfolio — so the portfolio reads as empty while the resource link plainly exists. Create campaign workstreams in the same project as their root, or read them through their own ledgers.

Scope work and authority

The shared Work feed and approval list accept an exact workstream slug:
MCP and REST use workstream_slug on erdo_list_activity_feed, erdo_list_approvals, GET /v1/activity/feed, and GET /v1/approvals. Exact scope is applied before pagination, so unrelated urgent or organization-level items cannot displace matching work. always_this_workstream creates a standing approval policy for that action and its parameter constraints on this workstream only. It does not grant authority to another workstream, and all provider writes continue through the existing approval system.
