SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

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

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates multi-step processes and ensures critical actions are reviewed before execution, preventing errors and streamlining complex operations.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Repeatable Automation: Define and execute complex workflows for tasks like triaging emails, monitoring systems, or syncing data.
  • Approval Checkpoints: Halt execution at specific points to allow human review and approval before proceeding with sensitive actions (e.g., sending emails, deleting files).
  • Deterministic Execution: Ensures that the same workflow with the same inputs will always produce the same output, eliminating LLM variability.
  • Use Case: Automatically triage incoming emails, categorize them, and then require user approval before sending any replies or taking action on "needs_action" items.

Quick Start

Run the email triage workflow for emails from the last day.

Frequently Asked Questions about Lobster

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I add human approval checkpoints to an automated workflow pipeline?▼

This Skill executes multi-step workflows with optional human approval checkpoints using a typed JSON-first pipeline runtime. It automates repeatable tasks such as email triaging, system monitoring, and data synchronization while requiring user-gated actions for sensitive operations.

How do I automate email triage with deterministic execution and user-gated replies?▼

To automate email triage with deterministic execution, you define a typed workflow that categorizes incoming emails and halts at an approval checkpoint, requiring user review before sending replies or executing actions on items needing attention.

Can I resume an interrupted workflow pipeline without re-running completed steps?▼

Yes, you can resume an interrupted workflow pipeline without re-running completed steps by using token-based resume functionality. The runtime supports resume functionality via tokens, allowing interrupted workflows to continue execution from their last checkpoint.

Do I need a specific executable configured to run deterministic workflow pipelines?▼

Yes, you need the Lobster executable to be available and configured in your environment to run deterministic workflow pipelines. This executable serves as the required runtime for executing typed JSON-first workflows with approval checkpoints.

What is the best way to ensure deterministic execution for repeatable automation workflows?▼

The best way to ensure deterministic execution for repeatable automation workflows is to use a typed JSON-first pipeline runtime, which guarantees that the same workflow inputs always produce the same output by eliminating LLM variability.

What are the limitations of using a typed JSON-first pipeline runtime for workflow automation?▼

A limitation of using a typed JSON-first pipeline runtime for workflow automation is that it requires the specific executable to be pre-configured, and workflows must strictly adhere to typed JSON formats, meaning non-JSON data structures are not natively supported.
