Guide for octomind workflow files: pipeline design (pattern selection, step decomposition, sentinel handoff contracts, loop convergence, context economics) plus the exact TOML syntax for the external orchestrator that chains octomind run subprocesses. Covers sequential, parallel (static, count, dynamic fan-out), loop, conditional, and graph-routed steps, variable substitution, session modes, pre-flight validation, tap workflows, and the CLI. Activate when designing, authoring, validating, or…
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
## Overview
`octomind workflow <file.toml|name>` is an external orchestrator: it chains `octomind run --format jsonl` subprocesses into a multi-step pipeline, passing outputs between steps by name. This skill covers how to design a pipeline that is efficient and reliable, and the exact TOML syntax. It applies to any domain.
## Mental model
A workflow is a predefined code path: you fix the steps at authoring time and the orchestrator executes them deterministically. If you cannot enumerate the steps in advance, use a single agent run instead.
Each step starts with a fresh context and knows only what its prompt template passes in — no drift, but also no implicit memory. Every step name becomes a `{{name}}` variable holding that step's full output; `{{input}}` is stdin.
```
stdin ─► octomind workflow file.toml
├─ per step → octomind run --format jsonl (subprocess)
├─ stderr: each step's reply, progress, cost, tokens, totals
└─ stdout: empty, or JSONL events with --format jsonl
```
## Designing the workflow
### Pattern selection
Use the fewest steps that work. Every handoff is lossy, so the burden of proof is on adding a step.

How to install
mdr add muvon/octomind-tap/octomind-workflow@sha256:d3415afc1d4b20cdThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261013.a69e0bb, 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.
