Agent Workflow Designer
Best use case
agent-workflow-designer is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.
Agent Workflow Designer
Teams using agent-workflow-designer should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.
When to use this skill
- You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.
When not to use this skill
- You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.
- You cannot install or maintain the underlying files, dependencies, or repository context.

# Agent Workflow Designer **Tier:** POWERFUL **Category:** Engineering **Domain:** Multi-Agent Systems / AI Orchestration --- ## Overview Design production-grade multi-agent workflows with clear pattern choice, handoff contracts, failure handling, and cost/context controls. ## Core Capabilities - Workflow pattern selection for multi-step agent systems - Skeleton config generation for fast workflow bootstrapping - Context and cost discipline across long-running flows - Error recovery and retry strategy scaffolding - Documentation pointers for operational pattern tradeoffs --- ## When to Use - A single prompt is insufficient for task complexity - You need specialist agents with explicit boundaries - You want deterministic workflow structure before implementation - You need validation loops for quality or safety gates --- ## Quick Start ```bash # Generate a sequential workflow skeleton python3 scripts/workflow_scaffolder.py sequential --name content-pipeline # Generate an orchestrator workflow and save it python3 scripts/workflow_scaffolder.py orchestrator --name incident-triage --output workflows/incident-triage.json ``` --- ## Pattern Map - `sequential`: strict step-by-step dependency chain - `parallel`: fan-out/fan-in for independent subtasks - `router`: dispatch by intent/type with fallback - `orchestrator`: planner coordinates specialists with dependencies - `evaluator`: generator + quality gate loop Detailed templates: `references/workflow-patterns.md` --- ## Recommended Workflow 1. Select pattern based on dependency shape and risk profile. 2. Scaffold config via `scripts/workflow_scaffolder.py`. 3. Define handoff contract fields for every edge. 4. Add retry/timeouts and output validation gates. 5. Dry-run with small context budgets before scaling. --- ## Common Pitfalls - Over-orchestrating tasks solvable by one well-structured prompt - Missing timeout/retry policies for external-model calls - Passing full upstream context instead of targeted artifacts - Ignoring per-step cost accumulation ## Best Practices 1. Start with the smallest pattern that can satisfy requirements. 2. Keep handoff payloads explicit and bounded. 3. Validate intermediate outputs before fan-in synthesis. 4. Enforce budget and timeout limits in every step.
