SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Workflow shortcut skills and the workflow-creator companion bundled inside durable-workflow-runtime are not discoverable as global slash commands until they are linked into the user's global skill directories, and doing this by hand is error-prone. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Symlink Installation: Creates or repairs directory symlinks for every workflow-shortcuts subdirectory containing SKILL.md into ~/.agents/skills and ~/.claude/skills. - Companion Skill Publishing: Links the workflow-creator skill as a real directory symlink so its references and scripts stay reachable from global skill roots. - Safe Link Management: Replaces only existing symlinks, refuses to overwrite real files or directories, and prunes stale links pointing into the runtime bundle. - Use Case: After cloning the durable-workflow-runtime bundle, run the setup script once so /<workflow_id> and /workflow-creator become loadable slash commands in any agent session. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to run the durable-workflow-runtime setup script to install the workflow shortcut and workflow-creator symlinks into your global skill directories.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I install workflow shortcut skills as global slash commands?▼

Run python <setup-skill-root>/scripts/setup.py from the durable-workflow-runtime/setup directory. It symlinks every workflow-shortcuts subdirectory containing SKILL.md into ~/.agents/skills and ~/.claude/skills, making /<workflow_id> discoverable globally.

How do I install the workflow-creator companion skill globally?▼

The same setup.py script installs workflow-creator automatically as a real directory symlink into both global skill roots. Its references and scripts remain reachable because the link points at the actual skill directory inside the runtime bundle.

Can I install workflow shortcuts into a custom skill directory?▼

Yes, pass --skill-root one or more times to override the default destinations. For example, --skill-root ~/.agents/skills --skill-root ~/.claude/skills, or any other directory that should receive the symlinks.

What happens if a real file already exists at the symlink destination?▼

The script fails instead of overwriting it. It only replaces destinations that are already symlinks; existing non-symlink files or directories cause a human-readable error on stderr and a non-zero exit code.

Does the setup script run or preflight any workflows?▼

No, it is an install-only surface. It never calls bridge.py start, resume, or preflight, does not allocate host I/O paths, and does not create or mutate runtime run state.
