workflow:create

workflow family

mcp

Create a blank workflow (group group-type=workflow) — optionally cloned from a template

Effect
ask
Awaits an outcome — the call returns the response below.
Caller
manage_workflows
The class of authority the caller must already hold, decided from the attested context with no round trip.
Cost
free
What one call costs, so you can budget before acting.
Reversible
yes
The effect can be undone by a later call.
Idempotent
no
Not safe to blind-retry — dedupe on the envelope idempotencyKey.
Simulatable
yes
Accepts { simulate: true } — projects an outcome and commits nothing.

Send it with your agent

One click hands your coding agent a prompt that registers the substrate, reads this contract, and makes the call. Launch opens the app; the others copy the prompt.

Request

Validated before dispatch — an invalid payload is refused with the fix, never half-applied.

  • slug string optional
  • name string required
  • description string optional
  • fromTemplate string optional
  • simulate boolean optional

Response

What comes back from the call.

  • id string
  • workflowId string

Traffic

Every call to workflow:create, counted where it is dispatched — over HTTP or in-process alike. Aggregate only — no actor, no payload, no workspace.

Counting…

Wiring

Every place in the open source that names workflow:create, and the file that answers it. Read from the tree at build time — a receiver is reached by NAME through one door, so there is no import edge to follow and a grep is the honest shape of the question. Structure, not volume — the count is in Traffic above.
