From Process Models to Composable Agentic Workflows: Combining BPMN, Agents and Enterprise Knowledge

arXiv:2611.13196v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LLM-based agents can reason, use tools and collaborate. However, coordinating increasingly complex agentic applications becomes difficult to understand, monitor and improve. Decisions distributed across prompts, tool calls and application logic make workflows implicit. We introduce Recursive Capability Composition, enabling agents to execute business processes and expose them as reusable Agentic Tools. This paper presents a BPMN-based approach to Agentic Workflows, combining explicit orchestration with autonomous reasoning. SemTalk BPMN models are transformed into executable workflows using a LangGraph/Pregel runtime.
