SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

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

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates complex, multi-step processes that require human oversight or repeatable execution, reducing manual effort and ensuring consistency.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Repeatable Automation: Ideal for tasks like triaging emails, monitoring changes, or syncing data.
  • Approval Checkpoints: Halts execution for human review before critical actions (e.g., sending emails, posting messages).
  • Deterministic Operations: Ensures the same input always produces the same output, unlike LLM-driven processes.
  • Use Case: Automate the daily triage of incoming support tickets, classifying them and routing them to the correct team, with an option to approve before sending any automated replies.

Quick Start

Use the lobster skill to run the 'gog.gmail.search --query 'newer_than:1d' --max 20 | email.triage' pipeline.

Frequently Asked Questions about Lobster Workflow

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?▼

Human approval checkpoints halt multi-step workflow execution before critical actions, requiring manual review to resume. This ensures deterministic operations pause for human oversight before sending emails or posting messages.

How do I automate daily email triage and routing with a deterministic pipeline?▼

Automating daily email triage uses repeatable pipelines to classify incoming support tickets and route them to the correct team. A typed JSON-first shell ensures the same input always produces deterministic output for consistent processing.

Do I need the lobster executable to run multi-step pipelines?▼

Yes, running multi-step pipelines requires the lobster executable to be available in the system's PATH. This prerequisite environment setup is necessary to execute the typed JSON-first shell and process resumable workflow operations.

What's the best way to ensure consistent results when automating data syncing tasks?▼

Ensuring consistent results when automating data syncing tasks requires deterministic operations where the same input always produces the same output. Unlike LLM-driven processes, a typed JSON-first shell provides repeatable automation for reliable syncing.

Can I resume a workflow pipeline if execution stops at an approval checkpoint?▼

Yes, workflows support resumable execution after stopping at approval checkpoints. This allows multi-step pipelines to pause for human review of critical actions and then resume deterministic operations without restarting the entire process.
