workflow-authoring SKILL.md skillA

workflow-authoring from letta-ai/letta-code is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add letta-ai/letta-code/workflow-authoring@git:20261028.a8f8e4b

Pins git:20261028.a8f8e4b in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Reference for writing a Workflow tool script (script API and gotchas, pipeline-vs-barrier rules, quality patterns, worked examples). Load before authoring a script for a workflow the user already opted into; it does not itself authorize running one.

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 authoring reference

A workflow structures work across many subagents — to be comprehensive
(decompose and cover in parallel), to be confident (independent perspectives
and adversarial checks before committing), or to take on scale one context
can't hold (migrations, audits, broad sweeps). The script is where you encode
that structure: what fans out, what verifies, what synthesizes.

When you do call the Workflow tool, the right move is often **hybrid**: scout
inline first (list the files, scope the diff, find the modules) to discover
the work-list, then call Workflow to pipeline over it, passing the list via
`args`. You don't need to know the shape before the *task* — only before the
*orchestration step*.

Common single-phase workflows you can chain across turns:
- **Understand** — parallel readers over relevant subsystems → structured map
- **Design** — judge panel of N independent approaches → scored synthesis
- **Review** — dimensions → find → adversarially verify
- **Research** — multi-modal sweep → deep-read → synthesize
- **Migrate** — discover sites → transform each → verify

For larger work, run several in sequence — read each result before deciding
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add letta-ai/letta-code/workflow-authoring@sha256:5bb48defcb824e0c

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261028.a8f8e4b, 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.
