Before & after

Same prompt, same agent — the only difference is the skill.

Prompt“Build a workflow that has one agent research competitors, another analyzes our positioning, and a third drafts a strategy memo.”
Beforegeneric AI agent
You can orchestrate multiple agents in a workflow. Each agent would handle its own task, and you'd need to pass the results from one to the next. You'd typically set up an initial prompt, have the first agent run, capture its output, then feed that to the second agent, and so on. A workflow file would let you script this, but you'd need to define the agents, their instructions, and how data flows between them. It's a bit complex to set up initially.

OUTPUT: Structured memo with research + analysis embedded as appendix

About this skill

Your agents work separately, but the workflow loses context, merges incompatible answers, or keeps retrying without finishing. This skill turns repeatable tasks into JavaScript workflows with explicit inputs, validated handoffs, bounded execution, and useful failure reports. It checks the installed Claude Code workflow interface before writing integration code.

What it does

  • Implements fan-out, sequential pipelines, bounded repair loops, and reviewer panels.
  • Gives each fresh-context agent the exact inputs, constraints, and output contract it needs.
  • Defines join behavior when one reviewer fails, returns malformed output, or misses its deadline.
  • Prevents concurrent agents from overwriting the same files and separates proposed changes from integration.
  • Adds stable result ordering, duplicate handling, execution limits, and resumable checkpoints where appropriate.
  • Supplies mock-based checks for malformed responses, partial failures, exhausted loops, and uncertain timeouts.

What you get

A complete JavaScript workflow with its input/output contract, execution limits, and verification status. When the installed workflow API is unavailable, you get an implementation with an explicit adapter boundary and a precise description of the remaining integration requirement.

Best for

Developers using Claude Code to repeat code reviews, research passes, implementation pipelines, or repair-and-check cycles across fresh-context agents.

description: Implements JavaScript workflows for Claude Code using explicit agent contracts, bounded orchestration, validated joins, and runtime compatibility checks. Use when the user says "build a Claude Code workflow", "write a workflow script", "fan out three reviewers", "chain agents together", "my agents keep losing context", "my workflow loops forever", or "turn this task into a repeatable agent pipeline".
