Building workflows

The canvas

The canvas, validation, versions and publishing.

Node types#

Trigger, agent, LLM, tool, branch, parallel, merge, wait, approval, checkpoint, output and end. Each has a bespoke mark on the canvas so the graph is readable at a glance rather than a field of identical boxes.

Validation before publish#

Unbound required inputs, unreachable nodes, cycles without a loop node, and gates with no approver group are publish-time errors. The validator highlights the offending node on the canvas rather than listing an error at the top.

Versions#

Publishing creates a version. Running triggers use the published version, so editing a draft never changes what is executing tonight. Version diff shows both the graph change and the JSON change.
