Routines and workflows
Getting work done while you are not here.
A routine wakes one agent on a schedule or when a webhook is called. Open an agent and add one from its panel: every weekday at 9:00, post the digest to #general.
A workflow chains several steps together:
- Agent task - an agent does something and returns a result.
- Ask a human - the workflow pauses until someone approves or answers.
- Condition - an agent decides yes or no; no stops the workflow.
- Wait - pause for a number of minutes.
- Post to group - send a message into a group channel.
Later steps can use what earlier ones produced: {{last}} is the previous step's result, {{steps.1.output}} is a specific one, and {{trigger.payload}} is what a webhook sent.
Use Run now to try it once. The History tab shows every run, step by step, including what each agent replied.
