The only related mention I could find is "com.apple.notificationcenterui.widgetcontent" in /System/Library/LaunchAgents/com.apple.notificationcenterui.plist.
But widgets don’t start if they are removed from the Notification Centre.

Hey man, thanks for the support around the web! I just uploaded one of my lists on my repo, that i was working tonight on a Monterey 2012 macbook pro. Do you have any idea where Widgets like "WorldClockWidget" are spawned from? I can't find the related service
