/workflow
Reference for the /workflow command: invocation, arguments, inputs and outputs.
General-purpose workflow-harnessing command. Entry form '/workflow <<mission>>'. Drives genuinely-independent multi-agent dynamic workflows under named return contracts, subjects every finding to an EXTREMELY-CRITIQUE refute-by-default verification pass before it survives, is granted to identify and remediate issues beyond the literal mission (each disclosed per the change ledger), self-augments from current authoritative SOTA sources rather than memory alone, and emits deterministic output with a single recommended next move. Multi-agent dispatch and auto-execution are opt-in / confirmation-gated, never default-on.
Invocation
/workflow [<<mission>>] [--autonomous] [--verify-panel N]The definition sets disable-model-invocation: true, so a harness that honors that key starts this command only when you type it.
Pipeline position
Standalone general-purpose orchestration surface. It consumes a natural-language mission (the /workflow <<mission>> entry form) plus optional flags and produces whatever the mission requires — code, artifacts, audits, remediations — at the host's domain-natural locations. It owns no fixed downstream artifact; it dispatches the specialized pipelines (/plan-<stage>, the audit-fortress commands, /research) where they fit.
Inputs
The operator's mission, the --autonomous opt-in, and the --verify-panel N budget. No upstream manifest is required.
| Argument | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
<<mission>> | String | Yes | The mission / task / requirement in natural language (the /workflow <<mission>> entry form). |
--autonomous | Flag | No | Opt into continuous multi-agent dispatch + advancement (default: planned, confirm-before-commit). Irreversible steps stay per-action gated even under this flag. |
--verify-panel N | Integer | No | Critics per finding in the adversarial-verify pass (default: 3). |
Outputs
The mission's deliverables at host-natural locations, plus a deterministic result surface: the mission outcome, the verified findings with evidence, the disclosure ledger of beyond-mission amendments, the fifteen-bar gate attestation, and the single recommended next move.
Next step
State the mission as /workflow <<mission>>; review the dispatch plan the command presents, then opt into --autonomous only once the decomposition and return contracts read correctly. The planned mode is the safe default — autonomy is the explicit opt-in.
Source
Generated from src/apothem/commands/workflow.md. The skill src/apothem/skills/workflow/SKILL.md has the same name. Where an install puts commands and skills under one name (the Claude Code plugin, and the engine installs that turn commands into skills), the skill runs; installs that keep commands and skills apart ship both.
