What it does
Wf Start is an agent skill from ccplugins/awesome-claude-code-plugins. Initialize a weft workflow from a template or inline steps. Use only when user types /wf-start.
Its SKILL.md is about 460 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
The repository describes itself as: Awesome Claude Code plugins — a curated list of slash commands, subagents, MCP servers, and hooks for Claude Code. The licence is Apache-2.0.
When your agent uses it
- Types /wf-start
Example prompts
- “/wf-start”
Requirements
- Python 3
- Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash, Read, Write
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- List available templates with full details
- For each template, show a preview of its steps
- Present the user with a numbered list like
- Wait for the user to pick a number, name, or describe their task.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5bd4f16. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:
BashReadWrite
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
python3
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Wf Start loads about 461 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 26 tokens; SKILL.md has 153 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check: notes
The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.
- NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
allowed-tools: Bash, Read, Write
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Instructions
If no arguments — guided template picker:
List available templates with full details:
bash python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/core/cli.py" startFor each template, show a preview of its steps:
bash python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/core/cli.py" preview <name>Present the user with a numbered list like:
1. generic (3 steps) — plan, implement, verify 2. feature-workflow (12 steps) — full-cycle feature development with guards 3. Custom — describe your task and I'll build a workflowWait for the user to pick a number, name, or describe their task.
- If they pick a template: show the full preview and ask to confirm before starting.
- If they describe a task: suggest appropriate steps, confirm, then start as ad-hoc.
If a template name is given:
Preview it first:
bash python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/core/cli.py" preview <template-name>Start it:
bash python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/core/cli.py" start <template-name>
If comma-separated step names are given (ad-hoc):
python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/core/cli.py" start "step1,step2,step3"After starting:
Display the workflow checklist and remind the user:
/wf-step completeto advance steps/wf-statusto check progress/wf-dashboardto open the live monitoring TUI- The Stop hook will prevent finishing with incomplete steps
- If the current step has guards, explain what commands are blocked and why
