Generate a custom external task UI for an IBM Business Automation Workflow (BAW) human task configured with a Custom URL. Creates a Node.js Express server and a React (default) or user-specified stack UI that fetches task data from BAW, renders a Carbon-styled form, and completes the task on submission. Two intake paths: provide a task schema file (OpenAPI exported from your BAW service flow) or describe task fields verbally (generating a unified fields-spec.json). Includes instructions for…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
## What this skill builds A BAW human task configured with a **Custom URL** opens an external application when a user claims it in IBM Workplace. This skill generates that external application: a Node.js Express server paired with a React (default) or user-specified frontend that fetches the task's input data from BAW, renders a form for the user to complete, and submits the output back to BAW to complete the task. The generated application integrates with the BAW `/bpm/` REST API surface (base path `/bpm`, documented in `references/baw-rest.md` and `references/server-pattern.md`). This is the BPM Standard API — distinct from the WLE REST API (`/rest/bpm/wle/`) used by BAW portals for task lists. --- ## Credentials (Skill REST Calls) When a REST call is about to be made by the skill during this session, read `references/CREDENTIAL_HANDLING.md` and follow it — it will read credentials from `.env` automatically, and only prompt the user if a value is missing from that file. Do this once per session only. --- ## Step 1 — Identify the intake path Ask the user which intake path applies. Both are supported: …

How to install
mdr add ibmbpm/ibm-baw-skills-and-bob-modes/create-baw-external-task-ui@sha256:f826df412ffc1e26The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
