Deploy a process app or toolkit snapshot into a target IBM BAW (Business Automation Workflow) environment, list available process apps and toolkits with their snapshots, check available workflow servers, and monitor installation progress. Uses the BAW REST API to list containers, check workflow servers, POST a snapshot installation request, and poll the returned queue URL until the operation completes or fails. Use whenever the user wants to deploy, install, or promote a snapshot to a workflow…
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
<!-- baw-rest-ops: baw-ops.26.0.0.json: /std/bpm/containers, /std/bpm/containers/{container}/versions/{version}/install, /std/bpm/servers/workflow, /system/queue/{id} -->
> **⚠️ REST only — this skill does not support MCP.** All BAW interactions use the BAW REST API exclusively via HTTP calls using `curl`. Do not call any MCP tools at any point — regardless of whether an MCP server is connected or not. Never tell the user to connect an MCP server; this skill does not use one. If you find yourself reaching for an MCP tool, stop and use the REST calls described in this skill instead.
# BAW Deployer
Deploy a BAW process app or toolkit snapshot to a target environment and monitor the installation to completion. Optionally list available containers and snapshots first if the user does not know what is on the server.
## Execution mode
This skill operates in **REST mode only**. All calls use the BAW REST API directly via `curl`.
Before making any REST call, read `references/CREDENTIAL_HANDLING.md` and follow it — it will read credentials from `.env` automatically. Do this once per session only.
This skill makes up to three REST calls:

How to install
mdr add ibmbpm/ibm-baw-skills-and-bob-modes/baw-deployment-manager@sha256:4395340d09f4e6d2The 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.
