Workflow Authoring

⚠️ Planned Feature: This feature is not yet implemented. The documentation below describes the intended design.

Create automated workflows that combine multiple operations.

Overview

Workflows are sequences of steps that:

• Process notes automatically
• Chain agent operations
• React to file changes
• Schedule recurring tasks

Workflow Definition (YAML)

workflows/daily-review.yaml

name: Daily Review
description: Generate daily summary of changes
trigger:
  schedule: "0 18 * * *"  # 6 PM daily

steps:
  - name: Find today's notes
    tool: search
    params:
      query: "modified:today"

  - name: Summarize
    agent: Researcher
    prompt: "Summarize these notes: {{previous.results}}"

  - name: Create summary
    tool: create_note
    params:
      title: "Daily Summary - {{date}}"
      content: "{{previous.response}}"

Triggers

Type	Description
schedule	Cron expression
file_change	On note modification
manual	Explicit invocation
webhook	HTTP trigger

Steps

Each step can:

• Call a tool with parameters
• Invoke an agent with a prompt
• Reference previous step results with {{previous.*}}

Variables

Use template variables in steps:

Variable	Description
{{date}}	Current date
{{time}}	Current time
{{previous.results}}	Output from previous step
{{previous.response}}	Agent response from previous step
