FAQPage Schema
How do I create a valid YAML workflow definition for automation?▼

To create a valid YAML workflow definition, you need to follow the V1 schema for the GSD engine, ensuring correct structure, dependencies, context patterns, and verification policies are configured.

What is the process for building a workflow from scratch versus using templates?▼

Building a workflow from scratch involves phased guidance through purpose, steps, verification, and parameters, while using templates involves selecting a pre-built definition and customizing it to fit your specific automation requirements.

How does conversational guidance help validate workflow definitions?▼

Conversational guidance validates workflow definitions by enforcing the V1 schema, providing built-in validation prompts, explaining schema details, and verifying policies before outputting the final YAML file.

Where should I save my YAML workflow definition files?▼

You should save your YAML workflow definition files under the .gsd/workflow-defs directory, naming the file with the workflow name and a .yaml extension for proper engine recognition.

Do I need any dependencies to author YAML workflow definitions?▼

No external dependencies are required to author YAML workflow definitions, as the guidance provides the necessary schema details, validation rules, and step-by-step instructions to ensure structural correctness.
