What problem does it solve? Authoring and operating UiPath Maestro Flow (.flow) projects involves a strict JSON schema, CLI-owned versus user-owned node rules, connector binding, and runtime failure modes that are easy to get wrong by hand. This Skill guides an AI agent through the full lifecycle so flows validate, deploy, and run correctly the first time. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Author flows: Create new Flow projects inside a solution, add nodes and edges, configure connectors, triggers, scripts, subflows, IXP document-extraction nodes, and validate/format locally. - Operate and diagnose: Upload to Studio Web, publish to Orchestrator, run and debug flows, manage instances, and triage failures using incidents, traces, and known failure-mode catalogs (MST-9107, MST-9061). - Evaluate: Design evaluators and eval sets, run Studio Web evals via uip maestro flow eval, and compare run results. - Use Case: Ask the agent to build a flow that extracts invoice fields with an IXP model and posts results to Slack — it discovers the right connector via the registry, wires nodes with correct =js:$vars expressions, validates, and hands off for publish. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to create a new UiPath Maestro Flow project named InvoiceProcessor that extracts fields from invoices and sends a Slack notification, then validate it locally.
