Author a workflow

Use piflow-init to create a workflow template, or port one from a Claude .js file or an n8n export.

Authoring is the COMPOSE step. The piflow-init skill triages your starting point and builds the template:

COMPOSE fresh — design a new DAG from a description.
PORT — convert an existing Claude .js workflow.
IMPORT — bring in another engine's workflow (n8n / YAML / JSON).

The template is the source of truth

The output is a structured template at .piflow/<workflow>/template/. @piflow/core loads it into a WorkflowSpec and runs one pi per node. The template — not any UI — is what you edit, review, and version.

See the WorkflowSpec reference for the schema, and Run on Pi to execute it.
