Workflow Composer

Transform repetitive multi-step processes into one-command automations.

Purpose

Users manually run the same sequence of commands repeatedly. This skill captures those patterns and outputs executable workflows using Vibery hooks, custom commands, or CI/CD configurations.

Available Workflow Types

1. Hooks (event-triggered):
   - PostToolUse: After Claude edits files
   - PreToolUse: Before Claude runs commands
   - Stop: When conversation ends

2. Custom Commands (.claude/commands/*.md):
   - User-triggered via /command-name
   - Can include $ARGUMENTS

3. GitHub Actions (.github/workflows/*.yml):
   - Triggered by git events
   - Full CI/CD capabilities

4. Shell Scripts:
   - Direct automation
   - Can combine multiple tools

Process

Phase 1: Workflow Discovery

Entry Check

IF user described: repetitive process + trigger condition
    → Proceed to Phase 2
ELSE
    → Discover workflow first

Discovery Questions

Question	Purpose
"Walk me through what you do repeatedly"	Capture full sequence
"What triggers this process?"	Determines workflow type
"Any variations or conditions?"	Identifies branching logic
"How often do you do this?"	Prioritizes automation value

Workflow Trigger → Type Mapping

IF trigger = "after I edit code"
    → Hook (PostToolUse)

IF trigger = "before running a command"
    → Hook (PreToolUse)

IF trigger = "when I finish a session"
    → Hook (Stop)

IF trigger = "when I type a command"
    → Custom Command

IF trigger = "on git push/PR"
    → GitHub Action

IF trigger = "manually, but want one command"
    → Shell Script or Custom Command

---

Phase 2: Workflow Analysis

Entry Check

IF workflow discovered:
    → Analyze and structure
ELSE
    → Return to Phase 1

Step Extraction

FOR each step in user's process:
    Identify:
    - Action: What happens
    - Tool: Which Vibery component
    - Input: What it needs
    - Output: What it produces
    - Condition: When to skip/branch

Workflow Structure

## Workflow: [Name]

### Trigger

[When this runs]

### Steps

| #   | Action   | Tool               | Condition |
| --- | -------- | ------------------ | --------- |
| 1   | [action] | [vibery component] | [if any]  |
| 2   | [action] | [vibery component] | [if any]  |

### Variables

- [var1]: [source]
- [var2]: [source]

### Error Handling

- If [step] fails: [action]

Phase 3: Workflow Generation

Entry Check

IF workflow analyzed:
    → Generate appropriate format
ELSE
    → Return to Phase 2

Hook Generation

# hooks/[workflow-name].yaml
name: [workflow-name]
description: [what it does]

triggers:
  - type: PostToolUse # or PreToolUse, Stop
    tools: [Write, Edit] # which tools trigger

actions:
  - name: [step-1-name]
    command: [command to run]
    condition: [optional condition]

  - name: [step-2-name]
    command: [command to run]

Install command:

npx vibery install hook:[workflow-name]
# Or copy to .claude/hooks/

Custom Command Generation

# .claude/commands/[workflow-name].md

[Description of what this workflow does]

## Steps

1. First, I'll [action 1]
2. Then, [action 2]
3. Finally, [action 3]

## Input

$ARGUMENTS

## Execution

### Step 1: [Name]

[Instructions]

### Step 2: [Name]

### Confirmation

Before completing, verify:

- [ ] [check 1]
- [ ] [check 2]

GitHub Action Generation

# .github/workflows/[workflow-name].yml
name: [Workflow Name]

on:
  [trigger]: [conditions]

jobs:
  [job-name]:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4

      - name: [Step 1]
        run: [command]

      - name: [Step 2]
        run: [command]

Shell Script Generation

#!/bin/bash
# [workflow-name].sh
# [Description]

set -e  # Exit on error

# Step 1: [Name]
echo "→ [Description]"
[command]

# Step 2: [Name]
echo "→ [Description]"
[command]

echo "✓ Workflow complete"

Phase 4: Integration & Testing

Entry Check

IF workflow generated:
    → Add integration and test instructions
ELSE
    → Return to Phase 3

Integration Instructions

## Installation

### Option 1: Vibery Install (if published)

```bash
npx vibery install [workflow-name]
```

Option 2: Manual Install

# Copy to appropriate location:
cp [file] [destination]

# Make executable (if script):
chmod +x [file]

Testing

Dry Run

Verification

After running, check:

Common Workflow Templates

Feature Development Workflow

Trigger: /feature [name]
Steps:
1. Create branch: git checkout -b feature/[name]
2. Generate spec: /spec-writer
3. Plan architecture: architect-planner
4. Create files: Based on plan
5. Generate tests: /generate-tests
6. Create PR: /create-pr

Code Review Workflow

Trigger: PostToolUse on Edit
Steps:
1. Lint: Run project linter
2. Type check: Run tsc/mypy
3. Test affected: Run related tests
4. Format: Auto-format on save

Release Workflow

Trigger: /release [version]
Steps:
1. Run full test suite
2. Update version in package.json
3. Generate changelog
4. Create git tag
5. Push with tags
6. Create GitHub release

Documentation Workflow

Trigger: /docs
Steps:
1. Scan for undocumented functions
2. Generate JSDoc/docstrings
3. Update README if needed
4. Generate API docs

Self-Check (Read before every response)

□ Is the trigger clear and specific? → Vague triggers = unexpected executions

□ Are steps atomic and ordered? → Each step should do one thing

□ Did I include error handling? → Workflows fail; handle gracefully

□ Is output copy-paste ready? → User shouldn't need to modify

□ Did I include testing instructions? → Untested workflows = broken workflows

□ Is the workflow actually saving time? → Automation overhead vs manual time

□ Can it be undone if something goes wrong? → Include rollback instructions for risky steps

Integration with Vibery

SUGGEST after workflow created:
    - "Publish to Vibery: npx vibery publish"
    - "Share with team: Add to project .claude/"
    - "Combine with: [related workflows]"
