SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you run Archon’s deterministic, repeatable AI coding workflows so your agent doesn’t forget steps like planning, tests, or PR formatting.

Core Features & Use Cases

Run existing workflows: Execute named workflows (e.g., fix issues, review PRs) with isolated worktree execution for safer parallel runs.
Create new workflows and commands: Author DAG workflows and reusable command templates for multi-step development processes.
Manage setup and configuration: Guide installation, repo initialization with .archon/, and interactive configuration updates.

Quick Start

Ask an AI in Claude Code to run an Archon workflow by saying: Use archon to fix issue #42

FAQPage Schema

How do I run deterministic AI coding workflows to ensure steps like tests and PR formatting aren't skipped?▼

Deterministic AI coding workflows execute predefined multi-step development processes so your agent consistently handles planning, tests, and PR formatting. You can run named workflows via isolated worktree execution for safer, repeatable parallel runs.

How do I author new YAML workflows and command templates for multi-step development processes?▼

Authoring new YAML workflows and reusable command templates allows you to define DAG workflows for multi-step development processes. You create structured command files that specify deterministic execution paths for your AI coding agent.

How does worktree isolation improve workflow orchestration during coding automation?▼

Worktree isolation improves workflow orchestration by providing separate execution environments for each workflow run. This ensures repeatability and enables safer parallel execution of long-running AI coding workflows without conflicts.

What setup is required to initialize repo configuration for running Archon workflows?▼

Repo initialization requires creating a .archon/ directory and configuring root SKILL.md entry for discovery. You guide installation and perform interactive configuration updates to establish repo and global settings for workflow management.

Can I execute long-running workflows in the background using CLI commands?▼

Long-running workflows should be executed via background CLI commands with worktree isolation. This approach ensures deterministic execution and repeatability while preventing the workflow from blocking your current development session.

Why do I need workflow orchestration for AI coding automation instead of manual prompting?▼

Workflow orchestration for AI coding automation prevents your agent from forgetting critical steps like planning, tests, or PR formatting. It provides deterministic, repeatable execution of multi-step development processes through structured YAML workflows.
