workflow-state-machines SKILL.md skillA

workflow-state-machines from vodailocz/kilo-kit-mcp is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add vodailocz/kilo-kit-mcp/workflow-state-machines@git:20260821.05c0d52

Pins git:20260821.05c0d52 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

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

# Workflow State Machines

## Overview
This skill provides a structured framework for building resilient, predictable agentic workflows using directed graph-based state machines. It emphasizes durable execution, explicit state transitions, and auditability to ensure complex agent interactions remain stable and debuggable.

## When To Use
- When orchestrating multi-step, multi-agent processes that require durability and fault tolerance.
- When you need to integrate human-in-the-loop (HITL) checkpoints into long-running tasks.
- When debugging non-deterministic agent behavior through state history inspection.
- When enforcing KILO-KIT C4 Runtime Protocol stages as formal state transitions.

## Core Concepts
### Directed Graph Topologies
- **Nodes**: Represent distinct agent actions, tool executions, or decision points.
- **Edges**: Define the transition logic based on input, output, or conditions.
- **Immutable State**: Workflow state is treated as immutable, with transitions resulting in new state snapshots to ensure clean history.

### Durable Execution & Checkpointing
- Workflows automatically persist the state after every transition.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add vodailocz/kilo-kit-mcp/workflow-state-machines@sha256:e4a2724e13a20dc2

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260821.05c0d52, 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.
