Compost worms are Red Wiggler worms you can find for sale as fishing bait, they eat vegetable matter directly unlike most earth worms, these worms tend to live in the upper foot of soils.
You don't need to add worms to a compost heap, they will come when the heap is read for them to do their work. I consider worms as the indicator of the heap being almost finished and ready to use in the garden.
