About workflows

Workflows let you save recurring agent tasks and run them on a schedule or on demand. For example, you can create a workflow that triages new issues daily or checks your open pull requests for review status each morning.

Click Workflows in the sidebar to see your saved workflows. Each workflow shows its name, schedule, associated repository, and last run status.

Creating a workflow

  1. Click New workflow in the top-right corner.
  2. Give the workflow a name and write a prompt describing the task. You can type / to add skills.
  3. Set the interval—either a recurring schedule (for example, daily at 9:00 AM) or manual.
  4. Optionally, configure the session mode, project, model, and reasoning effort.
  5. Click Create to save, or select Create and run to save and test the workflow immediately.

Running a workflow on demand

You can trigger any saved workflow manually by clicking the play button on its card on the "Workflows" page, without waiting for its next scheduled run.
